    Having known you since I became a Scout and met your brother, Alan, I’ve always liked you. I recall running into you and Russ in the store from time to time. in recent years, however we became closer thru the internet. I’ll miss your interesting humorous emails. Rest well, I’ll probably be seeing you before too long. Scotty

    You were always more like a sister to me, than a sister-in-law. There are so many special memories of our family times together.
    You will be forever loved and missed.

    I have known Bev ever since I started school, and she was “my twin”, since we had the same birthday. From the age of 12, we were “sisters” in the Order of Rainbow for Girls, and Mr. Barker’s English class was also a memory we talked about when we were together in that class. Even recently we often discussed the poor grammar that was used by those giving the news! I will miss our frequent phone calls. Bev was an intelligent and caring friend.

    I was sorry to hear of Bev’s passing. She and I (along with my husband Kevin) worked at LTX. She was a lovely lady, full of laughter and a wealth of information on many subjects. I was always amazed. I believe she lived a great life and passed too soon. Peace to you all, Kathy O’Keefe

    Even though Bev and I haven’t worked together since I left LTX 20 years ago, Bev’s kindness and empathy will always ensure she has a special place in my heart. I’ve enjoyed our phone calls and exchanging birthday and holiday cards for 2 decades and miss her already. My sincerest condolences to the family.

    So sorry to hear of Bev’s passing and Charlie and I extend our deepest condolences to her family. Beverly, Russell and I were friends in high school, but became closer friends as we aged. Bev had a beautiful smile, amazing love for those she knew especially true to Russell her sons and grandchildren. We joined forces over the years with several members of our 1960 grads working toward class reunions, and on many occasions gathered at her home reminiscing. We kept in touch as recent as a couple of months ago when she told me she had met my grandson Jimmy who helped her with projects she needed done. Beverly, you are now in heaven with the love of your life. Rest in peace together.
