She worked for Diocesan Publications and Red Land High School.
She was a member of First Church of God, in New Cumberland, and served on the boards of the Harrisburg Symphony and Visiting Nurses Association.
Beverly was a wonderful mother, grandmother, wife, and friend, who was selflessly devoted to her family. She cherished optimism and was very intelligent, generous, and kind. She would always lend a listening ear. Beverly took each day and lived it to the fullest. She enjoyed golfing, shopping, good food, the beach and traveling. She most loved laughter and good times with friends and family.
