Executive Administrator, Bessie Watts
Bessie Watts is married to Michael, and the mother of 3 adult children and proud grandmother of 14. She retired from a major bank after 28 years of service after moving to Georgia from California. She acquired a new skill and became a manger of a medical supply store where she became a certified mastectomy fitter for breast cancer survivors!
Bessie has been employed by TOPELC since 2015 as the Administrator Assistance. She is usually the first face mom/dad and children see when they arrive in the morning. She enjoys greeting everyone with a warm “GOOD MORNING”. The children get a loving hug and a “POW” (fist bump) which helps start their day in a good way.
Mother Bessie say's that she is blessed to be a part of our amazing team at TOPELC
