Beverly was a dedicated mother, devoting her time to her family. She worked part time at the Menasha Red Owl as a cashier, where many have memories of Bev’s kindness, unique high voice and iconic flip hairstyle.

Beverly loved her long walks everyday, baseball and golf. She and George traveled every year to Palm Springs, CA to watch the Bob Hope Dessert Classic. They made Palm Springs their second home every winter, met many pro golfers and celebrities, and had numerous friends, quite a wonderful life.

Beverly was the sweetest woman, loved God and lived her life that way. She was always dressed meticulously, and her hair was always styled to perfection.
