My children and grandchildren had the honor of being taught by sweet Beverly at SFUMC preschool. She even helped potty train my 2 year old in the 2 day 2´s class. I cannot tell you what a mentor she was to each and every one of the Marsh Clan. She and Paul were the best Secret Angels that Tattnall Campground could ever wish for. Beverly had many jewels in her crown to present to her Lord and Savior. Heaven is rejoicing with her presence. Paul, we owe you at least one Blizzard!
