Beryl I. Bean

I have a lifetime of fond and fun memories of Aunt Beryl! I remember how excited we were as little kids when she came to visit. Once it was for Christmas at Waugh Ave. Often it was during the summer - when else do teachers travel!? I remember the time Henrietta and Beryl showed up at Valley View Drive carrying big (very big) rocks which my dad added that very day to the wall he was building around the patio. I remember going, as a 12 year old, with Aunt Beryl and Aunt Hank to West Haven...

I'll never forget spending a bit of each summer with Aunt Beryl and Aunt Hank, often at the shore in West Haven, CT. What fortunate children we were to be blessed with an Aunt who loved to do things with and for others!

She touched the hearts and minds of many. A gifted and dedicated teacher who will be remembered fondly by her students.
