With deep sadness, we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Beverly A. Riley on July 4, 2025. Beverly was a devoted, beloved grandmother, treasured aunt, and faithful friend.
Her kind and gentle spirit left an unforgettable mark on every life she touched.
Beverly was preceded in death by her loving parents, Horace and Bernie Marshall; sister, Wanda Oliver; and her late husband, BJ " PawPaw" Riley whom she deeply loved and missed.
Those left to cherish her memory include her sons, Derek (Cathy) Moss and Craig (Shawn) Moss; grandsons, Brandon, Corey (Taylor), and Blake Moss; granddaughter, Michelle Carroll along with numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family who will always remember her warmth and grace.
To know Beverly was to love her. She radiated kindness, compassion, and unconditional love. A true child of God, Beverly found strength and peace in her faith and knew Jesus as her Lord and Savior.
She will have a Celebration of Beverly's Life on Friday, July 18th from 6:00 – 8:00 P.M. at Kilpatrick Funeral Home in Ruston, LA.
