Helen Keller said, "Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light."
I think this portrays wonderfully what Beta sigma Phi means to its members. In my association with Beta Sigma Phi I have seen Friends who have unselfishly supported, encouraged, loved and cherished each other through both happy times and times of sadness and loss. To me this proves that to be a success in a profession is admirable, but to be a success in friendship is a treasure. I think that's first and foremost what Beta Sigma Phi represents, women lifting up other women in friendship, encouraging them to give the world and each other their very best. I'm proud and delighted to be an International Honorary Member of Beta Sigma Phi. Long live the Sisters of Beta Sigma Phi!
My best, Earlene

What a pleasure to be made an International Honorary Member of Beta Sigma Phi. So many years have gone by since I was involved with Beta Sigma Phi but I still remember the song and the pleasant times spent in the meetings. I believe it was in 1942-43, a friend, Marilyn Hare, a fellow contract player at the Republic Studio, took me to my first meeting. How she heard of Beta Sigma Phi - I have no idea - but she wanted me to share in the happiness she found there and I was glad she did.
In this world we live in today - filled with lack of morals, violence, hatred and lack of concern for others - it is comforting to know that Beta Sigma Phi can still exist and continue its good influence on the women of this day. I wear my pin with pride and I thank you.
Most Sincerely, Anne Jeffreys
Phyllis Davis, City Sponsor for Calgary, Alberta, Canada
I was appointed to the position of City Sponsor for Calgary, Alberta, Canada -- area City Council of Beta Sigma Phi, five years ago. Having had significant community involvement but no experience with Beta Sigma Phi, I took on the role with anticipation. I found all the ladies to be so caring and they made me feel so special. The expectations for me made me want to live up to those expectations and thus expanded my horizons greatly. Beta Sigma Phi is truly an organization for women that provides life long learning. I am honored and humbled to be an International Honorary Member.
Sincerely, Phyllis Davis
