Beverly is survived by her beloved son, Brandon (Brittany) Massey, and was a proud and devoted grandmother to Hall and Alice Massey. Beverly will be deeply missed by her sisters, Janet Cotter and Terri Michael.

She was fiercely protective of those she loved and would go to great lengths to defend and support them. Beverly had a deep love for the beach, was an avid Memphis Tigers fan, and always brought a sense of fun and energy wherever she went.
