Our deepest sympathies to Beverly's entire family and many friends. She was a long time tennis friend our ours during her years here in Longboat Key. She did teach and coach Mabel during tennis playing together for many years. She was a real friend to us.

I remember her sense of humor the most....she was very subtle in her ways and always, always there to help. Peace to you, Bev.

Bev was one of my favorite people in the world. She and I worked in the same office at Jewish Family and Community Service from 1986 until I moved to another office in 1997. We spent the days not only working, but singing, joking and being friends. She loved her children and grandchildren more than anything and kept me entertained with stories of their successes and of her lovely visits to them. I have missed being with that special person for many years, and send my deepest condolences to the family.
