Dover-Foxcroft – Beverly Hall Church, 86, passed away peacefully October 2, 2025, at Pleasant Meadow Estates in Dover-Foxcroft. She was born January 2, 1939, in Milo, the daughter of Daniel F. and Hazel (Brown) Hall. On June 19, 1955, she married her one true love, Donald Church.

Beverly spent her career working as a manager for Hathaway Shirt Company for over 25 years in Dover-Foxcroft and Waterville. Upon her retirement, she cared for her husband and was a very devoted wife during his declining health. She was a past-president of the Mocutoc Club and was very involved in the Foxcroft Academy Sports Boosters during her children's time at school. Beverly enjoyed traveling especially to Disney with family, camping, playing cards (very competitively), and she most enjoyed spending time with family and friends at her camp on Kingsbury Pond.

Beverly is survived by her four children, Ellen Annis, Pamela Ross and her husband, Bruce, Janine Dever and her husband, Benjamin, and Kevin Church and his wife, Michelle; eight grandchildren, Emily Annis, Ethan Annis and his wife, Heather, Matthew Ross and his wife, Heather, Zachary Dever and his fiancée, Christina, Katie Lobmeyr von Hohenleiten and her husband, Eric, Mary Bartlett and her husband, Stephen, Miranda Van Deusen and her husband, Peter, and Nathaniel Church; six great-grandchildren, Ella and Evan Annis, Reilly and Lilly Dever, Grayson Ross, and Leo Van Deusen; extended family friend, Todd Winchester; and several nieces, nephews, and extended family members. She was predeceased by the love of her life of nearly 57 years, Donald Church; her parents; five brothers, Merle, Daniel, Forrest, Frank, and Morris Hall; and three sisters, Ellen Bearce, Muriel Tibbetts, and infant, Julia Anne Hall.

The family wishes to thank the entire staff of Pleasant Meadow Estates for their compassionate care of Beverly during her time there and to Gentiva Hospice for their supportive care and comfort during her final months.

Family and friends are invited to call 5-7PM Monday, October 6, 2025, at the Lary Funeral Home, Dover-Foxcroft. A private family committal will be held in the Dover Cemetery, Dover-Foxcroft.
