in honor of Beverly.

Mom,

This is such a hard thing to write. I can't believe still you are not here with us. I'm glad for the time our family had to spend with you, but I wish it could have been more.
I want to thank you for all the love, guidance, and dedication you gave to us growing up. I will never forget the dedication you gave to us. You were a wonderful mother to us. Thank you for all the learning experiences and giving such a good child-life to us.
It was very heartbreaking to watch you deteriorate so quickly over the past few months, but the time spent will not be forgotten. We don't go by a day without thinking of you and the memories.
The time with us including Christmas will not be forgotten and we were blessed to be with you. I will (and our family) never forget ice cream, peppermint candy, Blue Bloods, applesauce, the ringing of the bell, CNN news, smiles, feedings, the cat blanket, teddy bears, remote control frustrations, dry mouth, holding your hand, and all the thank you's to us and the medical professionals.

I love and miss you,
Jeff

To Bev's family, so sorry for your loss, as a classmate we will share your sadness. We had many good times while she spent her days in Shenandoah with our class of 55. Always hoped to see Bev's smiling face at our class re-unions. May she RIP

I thank you, Mark, for taking the time find me and notifying me of Your Mom's passing. Although Bev and I have lived so far apart all these years, we have managed to stay connected. Our friendship was a close one and as young girls we shared all those intimate moments, both glorious and heartbreaking, that teenage years bring. That is how best I will remember her; forever young and full of dreams.
My sympathy to her loving family.

Mark and Jeff: I worked with your mom at the real estate office and enjoyed talking sports with her. I will always remember her car coming into the parking lot at work with the Bucs flag blowing in the breeze. She spoke often of you and your wives and children. My deepest sympathy for your loss.

Best Regards,
Marsha Howe

Bev was a fantastic neighbor and friend for the 30 years we lived next door to her. Her enthusiasm for the Gators and the BUCS was enjoyable to watch, we all watched for the flag for her team to be displayed. RIP Bev, you will be greatly missed.
