A bright, funny woman who always made me laugh with her stories. I will miss seeing her. The space is not the same without our dear Bev. Rest in peace Bev, we miss you so much.

To Beverly´s family from one of her Bishop Colton classmates, 1958. What a wonderful remembrance she gave us for our 50th reunion and here we celebrated our 65th without her, but not without talking and thinking of her. She was such a bright light to us in all she did. We realize that we are each getting older but we have wonderful memories of all the good times we had together. On behalf of the Coltonettes of 1958, our deepest sympathies to you of your wonderful Mom and Grandmother.
With love
