Beverly Michael Copeland

"Bev was technically my first cousin, but in many ways, she was a surrogate big sister. She single-handedly kept the Jewish part of my immediate family alive, welcoming us into her lovely home for holiday dinners, my mother´s ninetieth birthday, and my parents´ shivas.

She gladly assumed the role of matriarch of the Greenman mishpocha, carrying the torch passed down from our Bubbe and my Aunt Betty. She was the heart of our family, even organizing the Greenman reunion. They say you can't choose your relatives-it´s just the luck of the draw. With Bev, I drew a royal flush."

My cousin Beverly was a special and extraordinary person whose life touched so many, in so many ways. My sincere condolences and sympathy to her immediate family and friends. She will be missed.
