Beverly Mason Obituary
“Jean was a loved family member and avid business owner in her community. She adored helping people whenever needed. She opened her heart and home to many people in every walk of life. She was a giver and never shied away from adventures and making her family laugh. She had a passion for search and rescue. She also looked forward to hearing about her son’s airplane and enjoyed a ride with him in the plane he built. She was an avid horsewoman and loved to care for and watch them run!
Service Information: A cremation has been performed in her honor, and a celebration of life will take place in the summer at her favorite place in the mountains.
