for several years now, passed away August 10, 2014 at Centerpoint
Medical Center in Independence.
Beverly
was born May 12, 1936 in Sarpy County, Nebraska, daughter of James

others. Church activities were important to Beverly and she most
recently attended and was involved in Norfleet Baptist Church in Kansas
City.

open-heart surgeries. Also contributing to that sentiment was the fact
that Beverly’s twin sister, Barbara, passed away at birth. She was never
forgotten by Beverly.

four brothers. She is survived by a son, Jay Sahling and wife Bridget
