Beverly had been a dance instructor and enjoyed traveling, playing cards and bingo, but her greatest joy in life came from spending time with her family especially her grandchildren. She was employed as a Radiology Tech at the former Mercy Hospital and had also worked many years at Syndicate Hub, Davenport. She was an active volunteer working serving the community of mentally and physically handicapped, through the Elk’s Club. She had a great love for music, and her beautiful smile and giving spirit will be missed.
