I know that this is a little late but it has taken some time for me to be able to come to grips on this... I just want to let the family know that Beverly was an inspiration to me. She was very good to my daughters and she always had a kind word to say even when she was not feeling her best. She is a Angel gone to rest her wings now.... I will always cherish my memories of Bev and draw on the advice she gave me... Missed but never forgotten! I love you sweet Beverly...
