A true New Orleans spirit, Beverly was known for her vibrant personality, her love of Mardi Gras parades, and her dedication to family. She was an active member of Our Lady of Lourdes in Violet, LA. For many years, she was a proud member of the Daughter of Eve, she rode the float faithfully in the parades. She reveled in the joy of the season, always greeting the crowds with a smile and a wave, embodying the spirit of celebration and community that defines New Orleans. Known as the "Red Bean Lady," her red beans were a family treasure. Her grandchildren adored them, and it was said that they would only eat her red beans, no matter where they were or who else was cooking. Outside of family and food, she enjoyed her time at the casino, where she could often be found testing her luck with a smile on her face. Whether winning or losing, her joy came from the experience, and she never failed to share her excitement with those around her.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations in memory of Beverly be made to the Hospice House at 985-643-5470 or www.thehospicehouse.org.
