She went home to be with her husband of 50 years and many family members and friends. She was born one of six children to Arthur Sidney and Lida Hickman Wheatley September 26, 1922. Her early years were spent in Bridgeville, DE, where her father was mayor. During the Great Depression she and her family moved to Bishops Head, MD to live with her paternal grandmother Amanda Fitzallen. During WWII she moved to the Seaford-Laurel area, worked for the Dupont Company, met and married Clyde T. Hastings, Sr. They made their home in Delmar, DE and later moved to Seaford, DE where they raised their 3 children. She was a wonderful homemaker, great cook and a meticulous housekeeper. Above all, she was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was a great friend to many. She treasured the time spent with family and loved spinning yarns about life and in her early years. Bessie was funloving and never met a stranger. She especially loved to go dancing with Clyde. In the 50's she worked as a secretary in Mannings Drug Store, in the 60's for the wonderful Monoco's family restaurant and later retired from Safeway in the 80's. In retirement she was a hostess at McDonald's and Arby's greeting everyone with her warm engaging smile. Later she and Clyde started a morning coffee group at both places. They could be found Wednesday mornings with their retired friends laughing, reminiscing and talking about local and national news. At that time they also planned many road trips and the infamous cookie exchanges. She was member of the VFW and American Legion Auxiliary and the Woodland Methodist Church. In her later years she absolutely adored being a Red Hat Lady and attending all their functions. She is preceded in death by her husband Clyde T. Hastings, Sr., brothers, Warren and Donald Wheatley, sisters, Elsie Parker and Ruth Anne Wooten and daughter-in-law, Jeanine Hastings. She is survived by brother, Calvin Wheatley and wife Ruth; daughter, Patricia Jones and husband Bud; sons, Clyde T. Hastings, Jr. and Chuck Hastings and wife Trina; grandchildren, Amy McGee and husband David, Brent Hastings and wife Rebecca, April Myer and husband Brent and Ryan, Seth and Colby Hastings; great grandchildren J.D., Aaron, Molly and Abigail McGee and Jibrael, Rahilah, Ali and Jaseena Garfield and many nieces and nephews. Bessie will be dearly missed by family and all who knew her. She was truly an angel and a child of the Lord. We know she is looking down on us with that wonderful warm smile dancing with Clyde, laughing and rejoicing with family members and friends.

You are invited to come and celebrate her life with us on Saturday, September 27 at 11 am at Woodland United Methodist Church, 5125 Woodland Church Rd, Woodland, DE, where friends may call from 10-11 am.
