“Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed, and very dear
May she rest in peace. Jason, Eddie, and Cori, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Beverly,
Thank you for being the best neighbor and friend in the world. Moving next door to you was one of the best experiences a first-time homeowner could have ever asked for.
Even though I moved to California five years ago—and missed you every single day—I have so many wonderful memories of our time as neighbors. I’ll always treasure our porch chats over a glass of wine, Halloween in the driveway, Christmas parties, and all the little moments in between that made our friendship so special.
Thank you for being the beautiful soul that you were—not only to me, but to all of our neighbors. You brought warmth, kindness, laughter, and a sense of community wherever you went.
I feel so fortunate that life placed you right next door to me. I will always be grateful for our friendship and will carry those memories with me forever.
Rest in peace, my dear friend. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered. ❤️
Chris and Lainie Grott

Aunt Bev u will be greatly missed I enjoyed the time’s we had together. I still can’t make banana bread as good as u could. The endless clothes u altered for me. The home made . barbecue sauce u made. We truly love u and miss u. Love Alton I never forget u called me your super love bug. U are now with my Dad and my sister Rip
Bev was a Sweetheart, from the Moment I met her. I fell in Love with her, I’ll always remember her Smile and Kind Heart…
She was like an older sister to me and great friends with my mother. I have the fondest memories of her at my home when I was younger. Bev blessed me by allowing me to be her children’s first babysitter, I remember the day they were each born. During my high school graduation she sat on top of the hill outside the football field and when they called my name I believe she was louder than my parents. She was absolutely beautiful, inside and out! May she rest in eternal peace!
Bev., You were like family to us. I will always cherish the memories that we had..I will miss you dearly. You were my best friend and I will always remember that. May you Rest in Peace. LOVE YOU DEARLY
Jason, Eddie, and Cori
