I didn't know Beverly too well, but her dad, Eugene, coached my little league team, Christensen Diamonds, for the four years I played. He was the type of coach that brought out the best in you.
I ran into Beverly a couple of times when we both were attending Westminster College. We would have a nice visit, talking about family, friends, jobs, etc. She had a sweet personality.
