Beverly always made a home with family members in the Fort Pierre area and also spent time with her Aunt in Las Vegas, Nevada. Beverly spent the last 12 years in the Philip community where she resided with family and later moved to the Silverleaf Assisted Living Facility.

She was a member of St. John’s Catholic Church in Fort Pierre for many years and a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Philip for the last 12 years.
