Bev, was my first team leader when I started work at the Banker's Life way back in the 70's. What a nice lady. Over the years I had the opportunity to see her from time to time at PFG as we had both gone on to other areas in the company..May she rest in peace.

I met Beverly when I worked in the
Cafeteria in the Z building of Principal. She was just a sweet lady.
Bless her family and keep her memory in your hearts forever

Beverly was a neat little lady; a wonderful friend, and such a peppy, energetic little person. She was always kind and thoughtful of others. I loved her sense of humor. She will be greatly missed. --Sympathy to her family. All of you are in my thoughts and Prayers.---June Barron.

Aunt Bev was one of a kind. She may have been a petite person but she had a giant personality. We all felt she really cared for her extended family. I enjoyed our periodic phone calls and birthday cards. She never forgot us. She will truly be missed.

Bev was my first team leader after I was hired at PFG. She was little, but mighty and oh so fair. I loved her sense of humor and she was great to work with. RIP Bev, you are missed already!!
