Beverly was born on March 6, 1929 in Saginaw, Michigan, to Peter Paul Zariske and Henriette Louise Bremer. She completed the family, joining brother Gerald and sister Jeannette.

She spent the rest of her career with Mr. Halley, first at the firm of Halley and Halley, and later at the firm of Woodburn, Wedge, Blakey and Jeppson. She worked into her 70s before retiring, and was well respected in the legal community.
She was the wife of Everett R. Smith and mother of Gary Gilardi, Mary, June and Sharon. She survives her Grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, siblings, husband Everett R Smith and first husband Frank Gilardi.
Internment will be at Masonic Memorial Gardens in Reno. The family will hold a private remembrance gathering at Bev's home on November 10.
