Beverly was my hero. I had the great pleasure of working with and knowing her. She was always kind and all our customers and a pleasure to work with at Allstate. She was strong with her illness and never let it get in her way and continued to provide great customer service and became my true hero. I will miss you and I am so glad I got to get a little peice of your friendship. My prayers go out to your family in this time of sadness.

I got to know Beverly and about her faith because of a simple WWJD bracelet and a prayer request. Then over the next 5 years I was blessed to witness the peace and joy of Christ shine through her to everyone at work. My thoughts and prayers are with the family members during this time of deep sadness.

Beverly was truely one of a kind. She showed compassion towards her customer's and such fairness when settling their claims. I had the great pleasure of knowing Beverly for many years from her time with Allstate in Jacksonville to Gainesville. I worked by her side on one claim in Gainesville for a customer that had an extensive collection of rare stuffed animals. I know she worked tirelessly to make sure that customer was compensated fairly. That was Beverly, always had a smile on her face and a smile in her heart. She was always so glad to see me when we crossed paths. I will miss her greatly.

I had the absolute pleasure of having Beverly as a customer several years ago. She always entered and left the doors with a smile on her face. She was kind, patient, and such a wonderful person. Beverly was lovely. To Beverly's children, your mother was so genuine and loving. God Bless you during these times

I had only meet Beverly once but she sure took our Caitlin under her wing and shared time and memories with her some she will never forget. It's a shame that god takes the great one's so fast from us but I'm sure he has reason. Thank you for the time you shared with our daughter. Louis and Debra Panebianco
