She then worked at various places until she was hired at HEB in 1979 as a checker where she worked until her retirement from the store in 1999. She was very proud of her employment with HEB. Not being one to sit around the house, Beverlyn found a job working part-time in Gruene where she worked for a couple of years.

Being a valued employee, Dollar General placed Beverlyn at the store on Highway 46 where she worked until 2013.

In 1993, Beverlyn joined the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and was an active member going to many conventions and touring the state's many beautiful historical sites. She loved seeing the wildflowers of Texas and it's natural beauty.
