Beverly was a very funny person..so shy, but she had a laugh that was awesome..as teens at her house we laughed and giggled when I was there, only one night i think..but we had fun downstairs and laughed about nothing.. I only wish I would have known her better..

Beverly and I dated once, but it didn't work out. We parted badly and never spoke again. I never forgot her and I will always remember her smile and laugh. I wish I would have had the chance to say goodbye. Rest in peace my friend.
