She was preceded in death by her sister Jacqueline Rae Papan and survived by her brother Steven (Linda) Gabriel. Beverly loved life, music, travel, anything outdoors and giving to others. She loved to swim and sail in Sand Lake (Lake Villa) and Tomahawk Lake (Minocqua) which she called Paradise. An avid cross country skier, gardener and would rather mow the lawn than wash dishes. She was happiest in the outdoors. Beverly enjoyed experiences with the love of her life, the Honorable Duane G. Walter for over 30 years until his passing.
