Hi McNulty Family, I am just learning of Bev's passing right now. I am so sorry to have such a beautiful light in this world gone. Bev made such an impact on her whole community is so dearly missed. Bev stayed in contact with me after graduation and when my mom passed. Her kind words meant so much to me during such a terrible time. Erin, thinking of you in particular. I know the holidays can be tough but I hope the whole family feels her spirit just as much as they did when she was here with us. Sending love and warmth. - Sarah Wojnicki (Smith)

I worked with Beverley as a gift officer at then-Elmhurst College back in 2018/2019.  I received today's Prospect newsletter and read of her passing.  Paul and family, I am so sorry for your loss.  

Sincerely,

Jared Taylor

This is a picture of Bev setting up her office. I was helping her with her computer.  I will always remember her smile and laugh. She was a pleasure to work with and always spoke kindly to students and staff. All of her friends and co-workers will miss her. She was taken too soon. May she rest in peace.

I LOVE this picture but why don’t I have one from the front!! We were making that final video as  Guerin shut down. Bev dressed up and … she got into character!! I think we used this as final picture in that farewell video. Love it.

Turning out the lights— final time leaving office at Guerin— Bev was making me laugh “documenting” to prove that she really left.

SO much laughing trying to figure out how to get a picture! Bev says “we can’t even do it with equipment! a STICK” thought we should put that on a tshirt.

Fun time right before they left for the next chapter

My kids went to grade school with Bev’s kids and my daughter played sports at Elmhurst College while Bev was there.  But, even more dear to my heart was, in my mom’s last weeks, my sisters and I hired Bev to be her caretaker.  But Bev was way more than her caretaker—she was her last and closest friend during those days.  They laughed, they did their nails, they talked about everything.  My mom’s spirits were lifted because of Bev.  After my mom passed, Bev asked if she could have one of my mom’s lipsticks (mom never went anywhere without her lipstick) and I remember thinking how personal and fitting her request was!   She was a truly rare and great person.

This hits extra hard tonight, and give me  such a heavy heart. I am truly sorry for your the loss of your mother. Your mom was an exceptional person with a huge heart being an extra mom for anyone that needed it. She was always available for a hug, smile, words of encouragement, or guidance.  She was truly a wonderful blessing to everyone’s life that she touched. 
I pray that you all have the peace and healing you need. It’s a long road, but you have so many people who love you and are here to support you both near and far. 

Love and miss you all!

What a beautiful and special person. Bev was such a bright light for all the students with a heart of pure gold. She left a loving impact on my life during my time at Elmhurst College. Heaven gained a beautiful Angel. My loving thoughts are with her family. 💛

I so loved working right beside Bev these last 3 years.  I will miss her so, mostly her laugh and our daily talks.  Rest easy my friend.

I work with Kasey at Hyatt and it has been an absolute pleasure learning about her mom this past year and the loving family that surrounds her.  It's clear how much she was adored and treasured by all the kids and grandkids. Wishing the family peace knowing they gave her so much joy.

So happy to have been able to reconnect. RIP Bev.

I am sooo vety sad to here of Beverley passing away. I went to St Priscillas Catholic school with her. But actually Beverley was my very first friend I made the first day of kindergarten at Bridge school. My mother and I were standing in line and I was so scared about going in to school, so my mother walkered up to another mother with a little girl and introduced me to her. Her name was Beverley and she smiled at me and we went into school together always having that bond. We got together after St. Priscillas" reunion and it was so beautiful to reconnect

My sincere condolences to the family
i remember her big smile and  positive spirit.

For so many of us Bluejays, we are beyond lucky to have Bev in our lives during such a crucial time. Her office was our respite, her advice was grounding, and her sense of humor was restorative. Her support was unceasing through graduations, marriages, babies, and careers. When you were around Bev, you always belonged. Just as you were. No strings attached. Paul, Meggan, Kasey, Greg, Erin - thank you for sharing Bev with all of us. Her impact is immeasurable.

We had a radio station on campus, and worked in the same office for years. We were close and I really appreciate our friendship ❤️

Bev was my dear “Bridge” friend and all through high school we took the Harlem bus together. She was a tad more reserved than I was as people who know both of us would attest. We did have a lot of laughs that’s for sure, and she put up with me and my antics. She was a very dear friend and I loved her…of  course by my moving to Florida friendships get lost in distance but not in heart, she was always a very dear friend and I know she felt the same. I was very lucky to know her, and to grow up with her and her family. My condolences to her entire family. I know she will be missed by you all deeply!

I am so sorry for your loss. Beverly was beautiful and joyful. I met her when I went back to Mother Guerin for a visit and she was working in the alumni office. She was so gracious and gave me a wonderful tour of the school. May peace be with your family.

Bev was such a ray of sunshine. Her positivity was infectious and she had so much love for everyone who knew her. She treated all of her children’s friends like her own, and I’ll always cherish the support she provided me through the good times and the bad. I’m so incredibly sorry to hear the news of her passing and am thinking of the entire family at this time. Sending all my love.

I worked with Bev at RPW “back in the day”. Bev was one funny lady. Lots of laughs! She made the day fun.  Bev loved her kids so much and I enjoyed hearing about them. An amazing woman gone far too soon. Thinking of all her family.

So very sorry for your loss. First met Bev when she worked at RPW. Later at Elmhurst. Found out we both went to Mother Guerin and she knew my older cousin. She knew how to light up a room! RIP🙏🙏🙏

Sweet Bev! To say you will be missed, is an understatement. When I think of EC, I think of Bev. Whether that be one of the Habitat for Humanity trips to NOLA, our OSL days of welcoming new students, Greek Life, Homecoming, or just everyday life at EC, Bev is a part of all of these fond memories. Meggan, Kasey-mon, Greg & Erin, thank you for sharing your mom with me. I’ll forever hold tightly onto being a part of Bev’s larger than life world. Bev’s spirit was bold and welcoming. The Vincent Family is sending our deepest condolences to Coach, Meg, Kasey, Greg, Erin and the entire family. With Love, The Vincent’s Ron, Julie, Lori, Todd, Eric, Katie & Shane
