Not sure what to say?

I feel very blessed to have been her nephew. Aunt Beverly was ALWAYS sooooooo supportive, even when I did stupid things like putting on a weight lifting demonstration for the family talent show at Christmas when I was about 12. She clapped and told me how great it was while everyone else politely went about their business. I loved her. Hey, I don't have any of your (Tom, Barbara, Garth, Louise and Jason) contact info.

Actually, they were a great family and I continued to cross paths with Beverly over the years because I entered the advertising business,...

We have many, fond memories of Beverly. Our condolences, Michael and Gloria Olds
