George “Dick” Beverley, our beloved Father, Grandfather, Brother, and friend, returned home to his Father in Heaven on March 12, 2026. Dick was born September 23, 1935, to William H. Beverley and Mildred Dorothea Anderson in SLC, Utah. He was the oldest of 9 children. He attended Antioch and West High School. At the age of 19, he worked at Woolworth’s department store where he met his sweetheart, Marilyn. They were married on St Patrick's Day, March 17, 1956. Their marriage was later solemnized for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple on November 10,1965. He now has been reunited with the love of his life Marilyn and will be celebrating their 70th anniversary with our sweet mom.

Dick worked various jobs including ship welder, steel mill worker at Western Steel, and 69 years in flooring. He was a boxer, tumbler, and pool shark in his younger years. He enjoyed coaching little league for his sons, fishing with his family, hunting with his sons and grandsons, traveling, golf, watching and attending BYU football games, cooking, river canoeing, scouting, and going to his grandchildren’s games or dance/music recitals.
