Beverly was a Derry High School Graduate.

Early in life, Bev was employed by Atlantic States Gas, but left to be a stay-at-home Mom to her two sons. She went back to work at Masland/Lear Corp., where she retired in 1993. It was the only time in Masland/Lear history that production was shut down so all could celebrate with Bev on her retirement day.

She was a kind and caring person that was full of fun and she will be greatly missed by all that knew her.

Services are private and held at the convenience of the family. Arrangements are under the care of Hoenstine Funeral Home, 75 Logan St., Lewistown.
