I remember when I was little grandma was brushing my hair…I was drinking a glass of oj when she came across a big tangle in my hair it hurt so bad I splashed the oj in my face…The only thing grandma could do was laugh….I was so mad….but now I look back at that moment and it makes me laugh…I love you so much grandma and miss you more than words could ever describe
Lit a candle in memory of Beverly Stroud
Dear Cliff and Boys, So very sorry to hear this sad news. I remember the many years of friendship you had with my mom and dad, Charlotte and Dick Reed. I remember naming my ballerina doll Beverley when we lived on Damon. I will always remember her kindness and love when my mom and dad passed. Sincere Sympathy, Becky (Reed) Finn
We camped at Arrowhead Campground with Beverly for the last 9 years. She was a super nice lady and will be dearly missed. My prayers are with Cliff and the family. Teresa Ziegler
The Stroud family were our oldest and closest friends for many years until we moved away. Beverly and my mom sold Wheatonware for years together, leaving Jimmy and Jack to keep myself and my sister out of trouble. I really can't think of any important childhood memory that doesn't involve each one of the Stroud family. Mom calls a Spath plant a "memory plant", as it reminds her when to care for the other plants. I hope it will convey some means of peace and great memories for Cliff, Jimmy and Jack as well.

Such a pleasure to have known such a great lady, anybody who could put up with the craziness of me and Melissa is a angel. I remember sleep overs at her house and her wiener dogs;) she will be missed, heaven got another angel. Rip gma bev.
I remember Beverly as a very caring person. She and my mother were good friends when we went to Garfield school. My thoughts and prayers to the family. Sue Evans-Barnhart
I very find memories of how much Bev loved her family especially the babies. She also loved her little furbabies. I will never forget you Bev. Love Sandy
My deepest condolences on everyone's loss. I'm so sorry I can't be there for the memorial. Mom (Gale) Scott and I talked for a while about grandma and all the awesome times we had. She was a great very loving lady who will be missed.
I love you always and forever grandma, I do not know how I am going to live the rest of my life without you. You have always been my Angel and will continue to be. I will read the serenity prayer like you have always had me do
