Beverly Joan Proffitt

April 26, 1937- Dec. 24, 2023

- An angel gets her wings

Beverly was a doting, thoughtful and loving daughter, daughter-in-law, sister, sister-in-law, wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, and friend.

She lived her life caring for all other beings and animals. She was a modern day Saint Francis, taking in stray dogs, cats, fish, birds, ferrets, hamsters, raccoons, and more. She loved to share stories over a warm cup of coffee and homemade rice pudding. She had a special way of welcoming everyone and making them fall in love with her. And she had a sense of humor like Lucille Ball. You couldn't help but laugh when in her company.

Beverly's faith has brought her home to be with the many she loved and lost along life's journey. We are sad to see her leave us but so grateful for the time we had, and at peace in knowing her suffering is over. 

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a charity of your choice. Beverly especially loved Saint Jude, Hospice, and her local animal shelters.
