Beverley Ann Henslee, 65, of Covington, Texas, passed away peacefully on January 27, 2025. She was born on December 26, 1959, to Alice Ratliff and the late John Mark Adkins. 

Beverley's professional life as an insurance agent was complemented by her true calling in ministry. She served faithfully as the secretary for New Heart Family Worship Center and led the Women's Ministry for several years, inspiring countless lives with her faith, compassion, and leadership.

A woman of many talents, Beverley found joy in expressing her creativity through quilting, sewing, gardening, painting, and various creative writings. These passions brought beauty to her life and to those around her, but what she treasured most was the time she spent with her family. Her love, wisdom, and unwavering faith will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all who knew her.

Beverley is survived by her husband, Koney Henslee, and her children: Amanda Holt, Kandy Wilson and husband Mitchell, Chris Henslee and wife Jessica, and Jason Henslee. She was the proud grandmother of Paisley and Peyton Holt, and Juniper Henslee, who were the light of her life. She is also survived by her devoted mother, Alice Ratliff; sister, Johnna Baze and husband David; and brother, Troy Ratliff, along with many extended family members and dear friends.

Beverley was preceded in death by her father and her brother, David Ray Ratliff.
