Beverly Kunik Obituary

Beverly Kunik, 89

Beverly "Bev" Jane Kunik, 89, of Columbia Falls, Montana, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on February 3, 2026.

Bev was born on September 13, 1936, in Plover, Iowa, to Chester "Chick" Klein and Roberta "Bert" Klein. On April 1, 1970, she married Ronald "Ron" Kunik, and together they built a beautiful life full of love and adventure. Bev owned and operated Glacier Inn Restaurant in Columbia Falls for five years. They were famous for their lunch specials, homemade pies, and cinnamon rolls.

She found joy in cooking and being with her children, grandchildren, and family was the most important part of her life.

Beverly is now reunited in heaven with her parents and her siblings: Grace, Shirley, Rick, and Dennis.

She is lovingly remembered by her husband of 54 years, Ron Kunik; their children, Gayla, Shane, Terry, and Steve; and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister, Sandy; her brother, Butch; and many nieces, nephews, and other family members.

Though deeply missed, her family rejoices in knowing she is at peace in the presence of the Lord.

A Funeral Service will be held for Beverly on Friday February 13, 2026 at 11:00 AM at Buffalo Hill Funeral Home, followed by a Graveside service at Glacier Memorial Gardens.
