“Bev has been part of our lives for more than 43 years, and she will be deeply missed. She was a dear friend to my mother and was there to comfort and support her after my father passed away. Something I will always remember and be grateful for. Amie and I are the same age, so Bev has been someone I’ve known nearly my entire life. My heart and prayers are with Amie and the entire family. May God give you strength, comfort, and peace, and may the many wonderful memories of Bev carry you through the difficult days ahead. Rest in peace, Bev.”
