In 1964, the family moved to Centralia, where Beverly became deeply involved in her community. She was active in PTA, served as a Brownies and Girl Scouts leader, Branch 8 Hospital Auxiliary, Chapter X PEO, and First Presbyterian Church, where she was a longtime wedding coordinator. She also volunteered at the hospital gift shop and the Presbyterian Reborn Shop and was honored as Volunteer of the Year for her service.
Beverly enjoyed embroidery, quilting, scrapbooking, and cheering on her children and grandchildren at their sporting events.
She is survived by her children, Dave (Kathy) Stacey, Jim (Patti) Stacey, and Mary (Jeff) Kendall; numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Melvin Stacey Jr., and daughter, Sally VonMoos.
