Bev was an avid golfer and played in leagues as a member of Moccasin Creek. She enjoyed being a member of a P.E.O. chapter and playing bridge with her many friends.
Beverly loved spending time with her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Bev left us with joyful memories filled with golf and card games, summers at the family cabin near Perham, MN, and an abundance of love. She amazed her family and friends with her determination, courage and humor. She always had smile for everyone or a joke even when she wasn’t feeling well. She will be missed dearly.
Beverly was preceded in death by her parents (Lloyd and Gemina), her husband (Leonard) her sister (Loretta Lueb), brothers (Francis and Lloyd Larson) and great-grandson (Evan Odde).
