  7. I am so so sorry on hearing about Bev’s passing. We had a beautiful time together at our 50th nursing reunion. She was so happy and even though we hadn’t seen each other for a long time , the bond of all of us was like we had never been apart. I am so sad but I know she’s in heavenly peace .. until we see each other again Bev know that you were loved!

  8. Bev and I were in the same classes from 7th-12th grade; her sweet personality never waivered. Even though we lost touch while busy raising our families, we reconnected in recent years and instantly “caught up”. The memories of our last two visits in PA will remain in my heart forever.

  14. Prayers & love for all your family … what a terrible loss. Beverly was beautiful inside and out!! Beverly was so looking forward to being closer to you, her family, and I was so relieved that she arrived in Friendswood Friday evening ❤️🙏🏻We were to talk once she settled in! Beverly & I have been best friends forever since high school. Her mom made me a chocolate cake with sea foam icing every year for my birthday … I only hope that at some point Beverly made that icing for you and you all got to experience it. Beverly will be missed by so many!! She texted me pictures of you boys … she was so proud of you. She sent pictures of you, Doug, at donkey days in Colorado. She said we did that at high school too … I didn’t remember but she was right 😊❤️🙏🏻 You are all in our thoughts & prayers. Carol Stamm

  15. We are sorry to learn of Beverly’s passing. Barry and I had the pleasure of meeting her at Gavin & Gayla’s Graduation in Texas a few years ago. She shared with us stories about her Nursing career. She also shared her beautiful photos of Colorado and some of the snowfalls. May she rest in peace and may the Lord comfort all those that will feel a void in their life without her.

  19. So sorry to hear about Beverly’s passing.
    She was a member of our church Medical Emergency Response Team, taking her turn sitting in a special chair during the church service.
    She came when she wasn’t working, and we appreciated her service.
    She will be missed!
