Life is eternal, and love is immortal,
and death is only a horizon;
and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.
~Rossiter Worthington Raymond
Beverley passed away today in her sister Geraldine's loving arms. Brian and her parents were also with her when she made her transition. Beverley got sick on Christmas Day 2010 when she began to experience vertigo. It was not until the week before Easter that she learned she had cancer throughout her body which had metastasized to her brain. Over the course of these months, Bev faced her illness with dignity, optimism and courage. When she learned a couple of months ago that her treatments were being discontinued due to their ineffectiveness and that her days were growing short, she met her prognosis with the same dignity and courage.
Beverley is survived by her husband, two daughters and one son as well as her parents and three sisters. My prayers are with them all and my heart is, of course, with Geraldine.
Godspeed Bev.
