Beverly G. Iles, passed away peacefully on February 3, 2026. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her mother Edith Goldman.

Beverly lived a life full of love and care. Filling her days with family, work, temple, and activities she loved. A fantastic realtor, since 1978, she was committed to helping those in her community live out their lives in their dream homes. During her career her outstanding work earned her the National Realtor Emeritus Award and the California Honorary Member For Life Award.
