Bev was a kind, loving, fun person. We were blessed and honored to have her as a friend and part of the family. I loved playing Rummikub with her and sharing the frustrations of the game at times. She will be missed but always in our hearts and memories. All our love, Donna, Tom, Sean, Angi, Chrissie, Joel, Griff and Ellie

Dear Family of Beverly Reid, I want to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved mother. Beverly was truly a special lady. She always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. I don't think I every heard her complain and say anything disparaging about anyone or anything. Beverly was optimistic and grateful for everything! It truly was my pleasure working with her for the last 4 + years at LAH. Beverly loved her family and I always admired how included and loved she was by her kids! She must have been a spectacular mom! May God bless and comfort you all in this time of grief. You have been in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be. Warmest regards, Jennifer Cerf Volunteer Services, LAH

Beverly Reid was one of my mom’s dearest longtime friend and the only person who could call PJ, Patty Jo. She was also my sister Pam’s godmother. I remember being jealous as a child that she was not my godmother. Beverly never forgot a birthday or special occasion. Little packages with beautiful letters would come in the mail for birthdays, weddings and baby arrivals. I grew up where you should have an understanding of Emily Post Etiquette. This was not during the time of a quick internet searches and information came from books. We were trying to figure something out that required Emily Post Etiquette knowledge and could not find a book. What was better, call Bev! It was a call filled with plenty of knowledge and lots of laughs. After both my mom and sister passed away, Beverly stayed in touch with me. I truly enjoyed our conversations that covered everything from politics, current events, memories of our loved ones in heaven, travels, volunteer work and all the kids and grandchildren. Beverly truly took interest in anyone that crossed her path or came into her life. I am happy my family had the privilege of being a part of Beverly Ann Andersen Reid’s life. Sorry for your loss. I will truly miss her. Megan

Carolyn, Your Mom (and Dad too!) was such an amazing woman. I vividly remember being about 12 and buying my first Avon girly-girl items with babysitting earnings and her loving guidance, and likely, high level of patience! (I probably thought I needed a bright red lipstick while she gently guided me toward a frosted pink!) She and your Dad became a set of surrogate parents while I attended the University of Arizona in Tucson and I remember the lovely conversations and dinners we shared. They even went so far as to visit me while working at my restaurant jobs! Her smile, kind words, gorgeous hair and effervescent personality made strong and lasting impressions everywhere she went. I imagine that she and Peter and my parents are all giggling in recollection and creating many new memories together now. Bless you and your family. Margarethe

First met Momma Reid in my early twenties. She had a way of talking to you that made you feel like the most important person in the world. We would not get the chance to visit often but every time we did, she made us feel special. The world was truly blessed to have her and the heavenly angles are singing louder now that she has joined them. There are no words that I can share that will help you get through the pain Carolyn but know that Stanley and I are here for you. Thinking of you. Love and Prayers, Nancy and Stanley Maack
