Beverly held many names. You may have known her as Beverly, Bev, Billie, Bill, or mom, but her favorite name was Granny. One of her favorite places to be was a weekend at M.I.S. watching her two favorite NASCAR drivers; Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. She will always be remembered as a beautiful woman who gave from the heart, loved unconditionally and had a laugh that could light up a room. She will be sorely missed.
There will be a luncheon to celebrate Bev’s life immediately following the service at Freedom Christian Church (41380 Ryan Road, Sterling Heights, Michigan, 48314).
The family has requested that in lieu of flowers a donation be made in Beverly’s honor to the Alzheimer’s Association (25200 Telegraph Road, Suite 100, Southfield, Michigan 48033).
