Bev seemed to have that rare and unselfconscious variety of beauty that radiates outwards causing everyone around her to suddenly become beautiful, graceful and witty as well. I sure did want to share another cup of tea with you, Bev.

What, no mention of her fabulous virtuosity with the French Language!? Beverly spoke French perfectly, with an extensive vocabulary, wide cultural knowledge, proper accent and perfect grammar. That, in addition to everything else about her, made her one of my ultimate role models. I will miss her deeply!

We are so sad to lose our dear friend but grateful for every minute we had with her. She had a way of making us feel as if we were the most important people at any party, event, gathering and we know she did this for all who knew her. Her innate graciousness shone through always and we learned so much from her. Our deep sympathy to John and all the family. With love, Lizzie and Allen
