Most of all, she loved her six grandchildren, going to their sports, cheerleading, and academic honors programs and games, and going on vacations with her families. She even took her one granddaughter for horseback riding lessons, taking a few lessons herself.

Beverly was an Indians and Browns fan. Her biggest projects were making T-shirt quilts for all the grandchildren and also stuffed animals made from her mother’s chenille bedspread.
