Dear Machado Family,
I looked at the poems, but nothing quite fit. You know as do I that Beverly was one of the greatest women around. She was kind caring, comforting, supportive, and gave you a good kick in the butt when you needed it. SO the poems of lying still, are just not Beverly, she would want us to be happy and go on, move forward and live our lives happy in the fact she is with GOD now in heaven. Be sure she will still throw that slipper if need be, but she is there watching and rooting us on to be the best we are to be. Just be sure to tell the little ones about how great she was and pass on her words of wisdom. Beverly, we love you and miss you terribly. But you are always in our hearts.
