To Beverly's family, I am sorry to hear about the death of your mother. I remember Bev when she worked at the Good Samaritan Nursing Home in West Union. She worked hard and tried to keep that pretty smile on her face. I just got off the phone from calling a friend of hers, Rupert Kneef, and telling him about her recent death. Rupert became friends with your mother through the church in Fayette and seeing her in West Union while caring for his mother.Rupert has no computer and is not able to send his sympathy to you all. -----in caring and sympathy I write this for him and myself, Connie Schlatter.
