I lived by Beverly along time ago and she was a very wonderful person, who would do any thing for you. She came through for me several times when I needed her assistance. She will be greatly missed. Take care and my prayers are with you.

I worked with Beverly at Walmart for 12 years…She always had a smile and was a beautiful person inside and out. One of my favorite co workers… I was able to see her a few times through the years since then and always enjoyed visiting with her. Even though I hadn’t seen her since Ken passed away, I thought of her often and I will miss her. Donnie and Susie and families, you will be in my thoughts

I always considered Beverly my sister-in-law because Ken West was my brother-in-law. She was a lovely, warm, caring lady and although we didn’t talk often, I will miss her. My deepest sympathy to all of her family. She loved you very much.

Bev was one of my dearest friends and I will miss her. Didn’t get to see her much after she left Wal-Mart , but we stayed in touch by phone and visited when we could. A precious lady that I will see again on the other side! Prayers for all the family. God is our comfort and peace
in our time of sorrow.

I, too, worked with her at Wal-Mart’s. She was an awesome employee & a good friend. She was always a pleasure to be around. I will miss her but I know we will meet again in the afterlife. I share your sorrow and loss.
My prayers are with you: may your tears be small & your laughter be great as you realize how lucky you were to have her in your life.

Donnie, Susie and family
Bev brought a joy to us that words cannot describe. When she came to visit or just to talk on the phone the laughter and love poured out in abundance. We were so blessed to have had her in our lives. May your memories of the many happy times you spent with her bring you peace and comfort. Love to each of you.
Susan and family
