Beverly J. Fredrickson

Fredrickson, Beverly J. (Gruman) age 85 of Golden Valley (recently Minnetonka). Our beloved mother left us December 28, 2013 after a tough battle with breast cancer. Bev was preceded in death by husband Robert, infant son Robin and son Lance. Survived by daughters, Lisa Johnson (son Dane), Leslie (Craig) Carlson (children, Grant, Kacey, Ben, Will) and special friend Vern Benson. Bev was born in June 18, 1928 in Beach, ND and graduated from UND. She worked as a teacher, at Honeywell and for 25+ years as a successful realtor retiring from Coldwell Banker. In retirement Bev was an active volunteer for Story Book Theater, school vision screening and her church. She was a great cook, had a wry sense of humor, loved entertaining, playing cards, golfing, all kinds of dancing and time with family, friends and pets. A special thank you to the caring and compassionate staffs of Presbyterian Homes Beacon Hill and Optage Hospice. Special thanks to Sister Eleanor and Pat Goetz.
