Beverly Jean Rowe, age 62, of Vernon NJ, passed away on February 3, 2026 unexpectedly.
Beverly was, above all else, a devoted mother whose life revolved around caring for her children and providing for her family, often with very little and always with love. She raised her four children, Christina, Jeffrey, Stephanie, and Cynthia, with determination, sacrifice, and a deep sense of responsibility, ensuring that even in difficult times, her family felt cared for and together.
Those who knew Beverly understood her as a truly good person, someone who showed her love not through grand gestures, but through effort, planning, and self-denial. Beverly loved to help people, she was a volunteer EMT, and had a kind heart, always putting everyone else before herself. Family holidays were made special through her ingenuity and discipline, saving where she could so her children could experience moments of joy and tradition that stayed with them for a lifetime.
Beverly was also a hardworking woman. She would often work multiple jobs as well as take care of four children without ever complaining. She worked long hours, often taking extra shifts, so she could provide meaningful gifts and moments for those she loved. Her generosity was based in love, it was personal, deliberate, and deeply felt.
Though her life included hardship and struggle, Beverly's importance to her family never diminished. Whether she realized it or not, she shaped the people her children became and the families they now lead. Her presence will continue through them and through her grandchildren, who are part of the legacy she built.
Some of the most cherished memories include caring for her children when they were sick by tucking them in on the couch with "The Price is Right" or "Super Market Sweep" on the TV while she made chicken noodle soup. She made sure each of her children felt special, especially on birthdays when she prepared their favorite meals. Christina, the first born, the one who made Beverly a mother had such a special bond. Jeffrey, her only son; daring, accident prone and gave her the most heart attacks. Stephanie, nicknamed "Red" by Beverly, the one many say looks most like her, stuck to her leg like glue and knew how to make Beverly mad - by eating 5 lbs of Banana's a day. And Cynthia, the baby of the family and most spoiled by Beverly completed the family and filled Beverly's heart with so much love. Most will remember Beverly for her crazy, happy, bubbly personality however something many may not know was the "death stare" she would give if you tried speaking to her before her first cup of morning coffee.
Through surgeries, dirty bike accidents, births of her grandchildren, and any difficult time, Beverly was always there.
Beverly is survived by her children: daughter Christina and spouce Philip, son Jeffrey and daughter in-law Isbel, daughter Stephanie and husband John, daughter Cynthia and fiance George; and by her beloved grandchildren: Sophia, Bradlee, Emma, Amelia, Charlie, Austin, and Henryk. As well as all her fur-grand puppies and kittens. She will be remembered for her perseverance, her devotion to her family, and the quiet strength with which she carried responsibilities few ever saw.
A Celebration of Life is planned for a future date.
