Bev and I became friends when working together at Prescott School. Bev was assistant principal and related so easily with all the staff. She respected her profession and all those with whom she worked. As with all good educators, she had a great sense of humor. I worked with Bev when she faced difficult personal challenges. She always took on life with courage and resolve. And she adored all of her children. I am so glad I knew Bev. Very sincere condolences to Bev's family.
