Gracious and lovely, Bev, is how she carried her presence through life. I can still see her gently dancing and swaying to music before supper at Malcolm Place. Sorry for the sadness of her passing during this Holiday season, while she dances her way back to loved ones gone before her. Sending my deepest sympathy and fond memories of Bev.

Beverly was one of the very first people I met when I arrived at Bruce A in 1976. Bev was always there to answer the questions the managers couldn't . After retirement I would run into Bev and Susan at Tims and found that I was one of the people Bev would remember Going to miss her
