Widowed at a young age with two little girls, Kristie and Kelly; she continued working. Eventually, Beverly found the love of her life in Pete Messenger and the couple were married in June of 1969, welcoming his two girls Terry and Chris into their new family. Beverly was an amazing woman… balancing a full-time job, a blended family and a new marriage.

Beverly was a wonderful cook, teaching all her girls how to be organized in the kitchen. She loved to entertain and hosted weekly pinochle games, summertime BBQ’s and amazing holiday parties. In her later years, she became an avid bingo player and loved to play cards. Keeping her mind sharp, she was always quick with a witty reply.
