Beverly S. Wise (nee Lane), 67, of O'Fallon, IL, born on June 8, 1958, in St. Louis, MO, passed away peacefully on Saturday, December 27, 2025, at Evervella in Swansea, IL, surrounded by her family.

After moving to O'Fallon, Beverly married her husband, Ricky Wise, at First Baptist Church O'Fallon, on June 26, 1976. In her free time, when she wasn't working as a pharmacy technician, Beverly enjoyed reading and watching movies. She also was a collector of Paparazzi jewelry, wearing most of it, but collecting other pieces that she found especially beautiful. Her family fondly recalls pigs being Beverly's favorite animal, the whole house being decorated with images or figurines of them. If there was a pig on it, Beverly would have it! Beverly enjoyed spending time with her family and playing poker on Saturday nights.

Left to cherish her memory is her loving husband, Rickey Wise; great-nephew, Jason (Amber) Wallace; great-niece, Kristina Wallace; great-great nephews, Liam Wallace, Kadin Campbell, and Darion Hendricks; and great-great niece Diamond Hendricks; sisters-in-law, Linda Powers, Glenda Waters, and Ruth Heller; two brothers; two sisters; and many many other nieces, nephews, and beloved family and friends.

Condolences may be extended to the family online at www.schildknechtfh.com

A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
