My deepest sympathy to Beverly's family. I had the pleasure of working with at The Elmwood Park Library. She was a wonderful person, full of life, happiness and fun. May you know that she is in a better place.

Deepest sympathies to all Bev's loved ones.

I was blessed to know Bev through my sister Kate. I always enjoyed hearing Bev's stories of their explorations and travels. It made me appreciate things of nature that I hadn't as a "city kid". Bev's attention to life's simple treasures...a bird, a lake, a tree...a walk in the woods...is a legacy we can all keep in our hearts. Her life will remind us of what is truly important on this earth: love for one another and all the miracles around us every moment.

Keep bringing those birds to the feeders Bev!
