My heart is broken we’ve lost such a kind loving soul but she would have loved sharing her niece and nephews wonderful musical tribute to her she was so proud of their talent. It was truly a blessing to have had this wonderful person cross my path we worked together at uscellular. There a few people in life that truly understand compassion and then can execute it like she did.Bev taught me humility with pride barely knowing me she approached me one day at work she quietly said I know your having financial hardship I have more than I need we butcher a cow every year I need you to come to my house and get some.I of course said no I couldn’t she took my hand and said you can and I want you to have it. It was so humbling but I felt so loved by mostly a stranger ...until that day now I am so proud to have called her my friend. Until we meet again I can only hope to continue to practice your kindness and selflessness that you taught me Angels are what Bev was made of.

I graduated in 1972 with Bev from Marion high school. I had not been in contact with her since with the both of us going our separate ways in life. I do know Bev was so sweet and kind to me and others. An ironic thing, I had decided this year with myself just turning 65 I was going out New Years Eve for a change. I did and danced all night having a good time. My prayer is Bev joined us in heaven as well. Peace and love to her and her family.

The world lost a true gem. You couldn't find a soul sweeter, a smile brighter, or laugh as wonderful as Bev's. She was an angel on earth. I'm so thankful for the pleasure of knowing her.

I was shocked to read the paper today which was Wed. and saw her obit. It really saddens me to know that she is no longer with us. I met her at ENCORE and I sat with her and her parents. She was so good to them and friendly to everyone. She was a dear friend of mine even though I knew her for a short several months. We both loved out cats and animals. Even though I did not know Bev for years it felt like I had know her a long time. I can call her my dear friend that I will really miss. I will see you someday in Heaven with our cats. I know your cat will really miss you and wonder where you are. Love you Bev.

Bev was like a second mom to my brother's and I growing up. She was my mom's best friend (Jane Nidey-Cox-Benning) and spent a lot of time wtih my family. I have lot's of fond memories of her. She would come over on the weekends for dinner and she was always in charge of bringing dessert. She made the best German Chocolate Cake! We loved to play board games with her. She even came along on some of our family vacations. After my mom passed we had planned to get together so that she could meet our families. I am sorry that we never got the chance. She will be greatly missed!

Bev was one wonderful woman!!! She was so kind, compassionate and had such a soothing, calming voice! I worked with her for several years at US Cellular. She talked with everyone and helped everyone. My dad also worked there with us, he is handicapped and has difficulty walking. She would always, daily walk past his desk to make sure if he needed anything she could get it for him, and to just see how he was doing. We were so sad to see that she is no longer with us! Condolences to her family! She surely will be missed!!

Bev was fun, kind, gentle, and compassionate. She was always available to help others whenever needed. We worked together at US Cellular, and kept in touch on Facebook after I moved to Texas. She cared deeply and loved her family ~ especially her parents. She also dearly loved and was so proud of her niece and nephews. I was so sad to hear she is no longer with us. My condolences to all of her family.

Bev was a dear and sweet friend of mine from US Cellular. She was one of the kindest people i've ever met. She was always caring about everyone and always had a smile on her face. I got to share with her when her parents had a anniversary party, she let me photograph it. I will miss her. Even though I relocated we kept in touch by Facebook. Fly with the angels Bev! :-(

I worked with Beverly at US Cellular. She was the sweetest lady. I enjoyed seeing her at some of the small get together's for "home shows" for purses, cleaning cloth's, clothes, etc. I lost touch with her back in 2010. I am crushed and very saddened to hear of her recent passing.
Sending my deepest condolences to her family.

Deborah Newberry said it all...even though Bev was gorgeous and accomplished, it did not prevent her from being the sweetest girl at Marion High School, kind, always, to everyone she met. I will miss her.

Bev was one of the sweetest and kindest person I know. We graduated from Marion High School together and she was our graduating home coming queen. She deserved that crown more than any other girl in our graduating class cuz she was kind to EVERYONE...not just the popular kids, but everyone. I will miss her, but I know I will see her again when it is my time. My heart is sad right now because I had just talked to her not more than 3 weeks ago asking how she was doing...she never mentioned being sick or anything and I am left wondering what happened to her. If anyone can shed any light on the situation please email me or contact me. I can then pray for that cause and donate as I am not able to attend funerals any longer.
I am thinking of her family...her lovely parents and her two brothers. My prayers are with you all during this most difficult time. Rest in peace, Bev....You will be missed greatly. You were one of a kind!! Love and hugs till I see you again. Fly with the angels.

As I read about your death on Facebook my heart is hurting right now. I will never forget you and our journey with U.S. Cellular. You were there through my pregnancy with my son and I will always remember the fruits and food you made for me. I will forever be your daughter. It's not good bye but see you later mom.
