And from AZIFM…

We add our sincere condolences to Beverly’s family and are including you in many interfaith prayers for comfort and guidance during your time of sorrow. Beverly sure made a difference for so much good and will be greatly missed by us all. She was very caring, funny and ever so wise. We love and admire her so much.

We have known and loved Beverly for many years and many of our folks are offering interfaith prayers that may be shared as we go along. Beverly has served the Arizona Interfaith Movement in just about every capacity possible and with grace, joy and excellence. We will appreciate and value her always.

Our sincere condolences to the George family.Pr. Ray Navarro

May “the Lord bless thee and keep thee; the Lord make his face shine upon thee and be gracious unto thee; The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee and give thee peace.” – Numbers 6, from your Christian Science friend for life, Anne Taylor

I had the opportunity to be Beverly’s travel buddy as we went to the Melbourne Parliament of the World’s Religions in 2009. It was so much fun hanging out with her – she participated to the fullest and with so much joy and enthusiasm. It showed when we got ready to leave and all her gathered materials and books wouldn’t fit into her suitcase and I helped her get them all home! 🙂 It was especially fun to have meals together there and get to hear about each other’s families and background. What a wonderful dear friend! I have lots of pictures and memories in my heart I will always treasure.

Blessings and Godspeed Beverly – you are a GOOD ONE! Enjoy your next adventures on your spiritual journey!!
