To Beverly’s family,
I spent three days last week sharing a room on T6 with Beverly. I was admitted due to new onset heart problems secondary to my cancer. Beverly was kind and welcoming. We enjoyed sharing stories about our lives. Beverly spoke so fondly of her husband and their life together. I am sorry for your loss, yet, I am grateful I had the opportunity to share time with Beverly.
Sending you love and peace during this time of sorrow.

I am so sorry to hear about Beverly. I was one of the ladies who delivered her lunch during the week. I will dearly miss her and I am sure Louisette and Dot the other ladies who also deliver meals will as well. I called her Mrs. Rounds and she was always so cheerful and pleasant. When she was not home those last 2 times I was so worried and I will miss seeing her. I know Bernie very well and know that he and Barb were very caring with Beverly. I will keep her in my Prayers and will miss her calling out to me when I came by. God Bless you Beverly and your loving family. Cedars Friends will miss you too.
