Beverly Levesque worked very hard at her career during her lifetime. She spent most of her free time being a wonderful mother raising Valerie, Carolyn and Christi-Lynn. Beverly had a lot of fun visiting us in Arizona; she especially enjoyed the Grand Canyon. We loved Beverly very much and miss her!
