My Dear Sweet Mom,

I miss you so much! I cannot believe that it has been 13 years since your passing. I think about you all the time and wish I had more time playing cards, doing your hair and nails, sitting at the kitchen table having a cup of coffee, seeing you put your cute little foot on David's big foot whenever you sat next to him, hearing your laugh, seeing you and dad doing all the canning and bottling of soup, tomatoes, wine, cherries, watching you knit sweaters and blankets while you watched TV, watching "Golden Girls" with you...the list goes on and on! I love you with all my heart and am truly blessed to have had such a strong, kind and wonderful woman as my chosen mother! Thank you for being you!

Love always, 

Suasan

Wow - I just heard the news.  This is the little boy who grew up next door.  "Mrs Saathoff and Uncle Milty" babysat me while my parents went to Hawaii, and took me to their cabin, and put up with me playing in their back yard for years.  I'm halfway certain that Milt was the Santa Claus who showed up at my window that one Christmas eve - I never got a straight answer from anybody.  

You taught this little mormon boy how to play cards for money and swear appropriately.  Useful skills to this day, although I don't exercise them often.

And you were the best neighbors in the world as my Dad was declining from his cancer.  

After I moved away, I had to move four more times before finding neighbors that would be as good to my kids, as Milt & Bev were to me.  

Thanks for being my neighbor growing up.

Dear Susan and Family,
I am so sorry of your lost.  This is your cousin Melanie from California. I really enjoyed your visits when we were small. 
I have fond memories of your sister and you going to Disneyland with our family riding in the back of the camper.
Also traveling to visit your family in Salt Lake. They would take the time and show us the sights. Opening up their home with kindness and love. It was nice seeing your parents at the family reunions. Take Care. Love, Melanie Lander

Susan & Family, 

I am so sorry to hear about Bev and I sure wish I could have been able to make it to the funeral. I'll always remember the times we shared at the cabin during my childhood. My prayers are with you and your family at this time. I'll be thinking of you.

Dear Susan and Dan,
 I was out of town when I heard of Beverly’s passing.  I feel very fortunate to have seen her in Riverton a few weeks ago.   We had such a lovely visit, which I will always cherish. 

Just so you know, your Mom talked about you all of the time, said what a great daughter you were and how well you and Dan took care of her.

I loved your parents very much and will miss so many things about them, but mostly their annual Christmas Party.

Take care of yourself now.

I was heartbroken to hear that Beverly passed away. My name is Beverly, and I work at Shriners Hospital.  When Beverly found out a few years ago that my name was also Beverly, she was excited.  "We have an old fashioned name" she told me.  I was lucky to always receive a hug from her when I saw her at work.  I will miss seeing her beautiful face, my dear buddy Beverly! My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Beverly will be missed by all those whose life she touched. I am grateful she opened her heart to my two young boys and became such a special part of their lives.  We are fortunate for such a kind, friendly and caring person to have been our neighbor. It is comforting to know that Milt and Bev are together again.

Dear susan and family. We are so sorry for your loss.Our hearts go out to you during these difficult times. God bless. The Moore Family

Dear Susan and family,

We extend our love and prayers to you at this time.  Your Mother and Father as well as you and Milt were always considered a part of our family.  Our companionship goes back through the great depression when our families helped each other and enjoyed parties together.  Beverly, Richard, and I had many good times together.  I remember well the joy you and Christine brought into your mother's life.  I especially remember our Christmas Eve parties at my parents' home. The great blessing is that love and families are eternal.  Your Mother's many volunteer services brought blessings into the lives of many people.  Richard and Ellen are in St. George and are unable to attend the funeral.  Grace Ann and I plan to attend unless adverse weather prevents us from leaving Kamas Valley.

Bev was a very special lady.  We enjoyed time spent with her and Milt
at t the cabin and at their home.  My sympathy goes out to Susan, Dan and Family.

Dear Susan, Dan and David,

We are deeply sadden of Aunt Beverly's passing.
Aunt Beverly was such a sweet, kind and special lady.  We can still see her warm smile and hear her soft gentle voice.  We have so many fond memories of doing things with her.  She was always so kind and inviting to us.  Always saying so many kind and thoughtful things.

Many of our fondest memories were the great times we shared together at our cabin's at  Pine Hollow.  We had so many wonderful visits and great conversations.  One of our favorite was spending many hours playing cards. What fun we had playing those friendly card games together.  Other favorite times were the Christmas parties and the get togethers at Uncle Milt's and Aunt Beverly's home.   Aunt Beverly was a very special lady indeed and she will be deeply missed.

To you Susan and  your family, may the many favorite family memories that you find slipping through your mind and the warm and caring stories you will recall as time passes fill your heart with peace and comfort.

With Loving Thoughts and Our Deepest Sympathy
Blessings,
Ray and Linda Holmes

Shriners Hospital will never be the same without Beverly's smiling face and gentle sense of humor. She will be missed by many! On a personal note I will always cherish the memories I have of her and Milt.

Our Susan, our hearts and prayers to you. Your Mother was quite a woman here on earth and will be in heaven also. She has been reunited with her loved ones now. You will always be a part of our family also. Love you!

To the family of Mrs. Saathoff, My name is Renee and I use to play with Kris in the field east of her house on the deadend. We went to Olympus Jr High. I have looked for her for decades. I had so much fun with her and have so many good memories. I remember Beverly as well. She was always welcoming and kind to me. All of the family as I remember was so delightful. I remembered always wanting to be at Kris's house, I think Beverly had a lot to do with that. I often think back to Kris and I in a shell of a car out in the field laughing and playing as Gods great favor shinned upon us. I saw your fathers Obit and finally realized why I haven't ever been able to track Kris. I am sorrowful for your loss and the loss of Kris as I enjoyed her so. My sincere condolences to you and yours.

To the family of Beverly Saathoff-Beverly and Milt both always came to our Utah Teamsters retiree luncheons. They were both very wonderful and caring people. We will miss Beverly and her always smiling face.

Our family enjoying knowing Bev and Milt.  They were a gracious, kind couple and enjoyed life.  My mom was Blanche Metcalf.  Susan, you may not remember coming to the Reid Christmas parties but I do remember you as a young woman.  It is hard to lose a mother, but remember all the good times with her and your family.

Dear Susan,
I knew your mom and dad through Aaron and Dona.(my mom is Dona's sister, Blanche Metcalf) Bev was such a sweet lady! Everyone liked her! I remember her laugh! You guys used to come to the "Reid" family Christmas parties! They were fun. May you have peace in your hearts. Her and Milt are together again. Condolences to the family.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Saathoff family upon the passing of Beverly.  I worked with her in the labor movement for many years.  Her office was next to mine in the Union Labor Center on Redwood Road, so I got to know her very well.  She was always such fun and had a wonderful laugh.  She was always willing to help in any way she could, and she will be missed by the many members of organized labor throughout the State of Utah, and especially her OPEIU Local 11 brothers and sisters.  It was great to have her and Milt a part of my life, and I will always remember them fondly.

Dear Saatoff Family,

I was very sorry to hear about your Mom. My husband & I was very good friends with her and your Dad.  We had some very nice times in our friendship.  I was in LOS with her, she was also the life of the party.  She will be missed.

Dear Susan & Family,

Mom, I am going to miss you very much. You were the best mom a person could ask for. You were giving and patient, you never said a bad word about anyone. You had such a caring way to advise me with out really giving direct advice. Hard work and volunteering were a way of life for you and Dad, showing your strengths and beliefs for a better way of life for the "working class". You will both be greatly missed in so many ways, but the memories will live on. Mom, thank you for not throwing me off Mount Rushmore...   :)  I have been truly blessed to have you as my Mother.  XOXO, Love you always and forever.....Susan

Pine Hollow has now lost 2 good, longtime residents that enjoyed Pine Hollow like the rest of us, Milt and Beverly.  We are very sorry for you loss, and hopefully you will enjoy you time at Pine Hollow like Milt and Bev.

I'm sure Milt is rejoicing at the arrival of his life partner.  Milt and Bev will always be remembered as great leaders, accomplished mentors, and a wonderful couple.  Rest in peace Bev, you've earned it.

Bev was a wonderful, caring person. Words are hard to come by, but we know she will be missed by many, many people, both within the Masonic family and the State of Utah. RIP my friend.

Now the second half of one of the most dynamic, caring, loving couples I ever met in my life has gone to rest. Beverly and Milt were mentors, friends, and supporters of me when I did a small excursion into politics in the "different world of Utah."  I appreciated their time and efforts on behalf of ALL the people of our state.  We are far better off because of them.  RIP
