Beverly Ann Gonzalez

Beverly was born to Raymond Langford and Catherine Hewitt Langford (Slocum) on January 6, 1939. She lived her life in Jacksonville Florida.

She is survived by her son Stephen Pickering and his wife Karen, and their two children;

Jason Pickering, his wife Jackie and their children Cameron and Aiden.

Christine Faile, her husband James and their children Jacob and Weslea.

Beverly is also survived by her daughter Valerie Pickering Jackson, her husband Ace Jackson, and their two daughters Victoria and Rachel Jackson.

Beverly is also survived by her daughter in law Karelyn Keller Pickering, her son Cameron Pickering, and her step daughter's Katherine and Gillian Keller-Smith.

She is also survived by her step grandson Fernando Campos.

Among the many other loved ones there is one that stands alone as her lifelong and dearest friend Katie Morgan Deifenderfer. The only word to describe this kind of loving relationship is "blessed".

She retired in 2004 after working in the propane gas industry for Mobile Gas. She was greatly loved by her peers and customers. Beverly spent her time doing a variety of fun activities like riding her Harley with family and friends. She loved shagging and spent many hours dancing the night away with Tony Gonzalez (Abuelo). Her love for art came from the beauty she saw in all of God's great creations. She took great pleasure working with many mediums over the years but always loved oil painting the best. She loved to dabble in writing and has written unpublished stories that include original art, and poems that were mostly based on her grandchildren.

Beverly lived her life with Jesus Christ as her foundation. She eagerly shared His love with everyone that crossed her path, because she knew that testifying God’s love was the greatest of them all. She would tell you with urgency the importance of seeking, finding and obediently serving Jesus in the journey towards eternal life.

Hardage-Giddens Greenlawn Cemetery will be Beverly's final resting place.
