She worked at H&R Block for 34 years, before she retired. Beverly loved to collect bells and giraffes. In her younger years, she enjoyed bowling on different leagues. Beverly and Bruce loved to travel across the country together. One of their favorite places to visit were the white sands of Gulf Shores, Alabama. Beverly dearly enjoyed her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was proud to be called "Gigi" by all of her great-grandchildren.
