My sincere condolences go to the Ellis and Morgan families on your loss.  May Beverly be with God in heaven.   

I spent some time with the Morgan family some, many years ago, as I was a co-worker with Howard and did some work and socializing with the family then.   Beverly was always a joy to spend time with, and inspiration, and a great woman.

Love and peace to you all.

My friend and classmate we were sisters at that time we moved from separate lives and became distant but never forget the great times we had together. Love you always. 
To the family you are in my prayers and peace be with you all.❤️🌹🙌🏽

I was saddened to learn of Beverly's passing.  My sympathies are with her family and friends.  I met Beverly as a young employment lawyer on secondment to GSK.  She was very kind and patient to this newbie lawyer, who learned a great deal from her, not only about the role but about people and life in general.  She had a huge and positive impact upon my professional and personal journey.  Over the succeeding years, I always looked forward to working with her or just catching up with her.  Beverly was a delight; I'm grateful to have had her enrich my life and I will miss her knowing laugh.  Godspeed, Beverly      

Beverly was one the most giving, humble, intelligent, accomplished, positive, motivating, non-judgmental and loving woman I knew. I joined Glaxo in 1992 and Beverly took me under her wing and mentored me throughout my career. She went out of her way to support me and others even when she carried a busy/heavy load of her own. She was the true embodiment of 'selfless'.  What a special lady and I'm missing her immensely. My deepest condolences and sympathy to the family. Wishing you peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time. I will always treasure the fond memories I had with Beverly. Thinking of you as you celebrate her life today.

Beverly and I were featured in Glaxo's annual report magazine in June 1994 that focused on diversity, helping communities, and supporting educational and health-related programs under Robert A. Ingram's, President and CEO, leadership.


My dearest condolences to Howard, Farrah, Mr. & Mrs. Ellis, Sonya, Sherrie, and other family members.
I knew Beverly from Northeast Baptist Church. She was in the Youth Choir. One Sunday the choir was traveling and my mother mentioned that I was tired of babysitting and working at fast food restaurants. Beverly mentioned an internship position that her HR department had available. And I worked with Beverly in HR from 1992 until I believe 1996. I had no idea what Beverly was about to teach me and the people that she was going to introduce me to. But I cherish every moment!
Beverly loved her family and her job! And did a great job making sure she was present for both. I loved receiving her annual family Christmas card, the day after Thanksgiving! 
I am forever grateful for the things that Beverly did to help me while I was at Glaxo/GlaxoWellcome, that have supported my journey to becoming a school teacher in the state of Maryland and a mentor teacher to new teachers at my school.

I was deeply saddened to hear the news about Beverly. My thoughts and sympathies are with all Beverly’s family and friends. I had the privilege of working with Beverly in HR for many years after the GSK merger. Beverly was a truly special person , so kind, so thoughtful, full of wisdom and integrity. She was always positive and supportive, a great leader and mentor, with a great sense of humour and a wonderful sense of style with her clothes, shoes and accessories. Beverly always lived by her faith. As well as being a special person she was a truly excellent HR professional.
I will dearly treasure all my memories of Beverly.

My deepest sympathies to Beverly's family and friends.  Beverly was a stellar HR professional and her impact is still felt today -   through the people she hired, mentored and developed. She cared deeply for people.  She was kind, considerate and always leaned in to assist and help.  Beverly was also a cherished friend to many - she always lit up a room and brought energy and optimism.  Looking at the pictures of Beverly brings a smile to my face and warmth to my heart.   We will miss her dearly and may she rest in peace.  Diana 

Lunch with the crew.  No matter where we were or where we lived,  we always made it  a point to get back together… and Beverly was always there. 
She was our leader, our friend, our colleague, and mentor.  Most of us are where we are today because of her guidance and influence.  Thank you my dear friend, knowing you has been my honor !  


Beverly was a beautiful person.  I can remember being a new mother in RWJJ and being immediately drawn to Beverly.  She always had time to share a kind and encouraging word and always welcomed conversations about balancing motherhood and a career.  Beverly helped me curate my list  of things to see and do when I visited London for the first time years ago- she did not steer me wrong!  She was so well-traveled.  I can also remember the beautiful gifts she sent my family to celebrate my son’s birth three years ago.  We were delighted with the most precious items- Beverly’s taste was impeccable, and she was so kind, generous and thoughtful. I pray Beverly’s family is surrounded by people who love them and who share countless memories of why Beverly’s life mattered to so many.  Blessings and peace. 

Beverly was one of the classiest people I had the pleasure of working with at GSK.  People loved working with Beverly, and she was very adept at navigating through the organization.  And, she had the best shoes-we shared that love.  The world has loss one of the good ones.  With deepest sympathies to her family and all who loved her.

I will never forget the first time I met Beverly.  From day one she took me under her wing and remained a positive influence.  She will always be an inspiration to me and so many others.  I feel fortunate to have had the chance to let her know how much I cared for and appreciated her while she was with us.  

Sending my condolences and prayers to her family during this time.  Heaven truly has an angel.

Beverly was an amazing woman and colleague.  I had the privilege of working with her at GSK and she truly was a driving force for change.  She was passionate about supporting people in their development and had such a positive impact on talent across the organization.  She helped me be a better, more inclusive leader and for that I am ever grateful.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time.  Sending hugs.   

Hi Rudy, Faye, Sonya and family,

I am just hearing of Beverly's passing, and I am so so sorry to hear this.  It has been a while since I have seen Beverly, but she was always so kind and have that beautiful smile all the time.  

Our condolences to the family from the Scott family.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Continue to look to the Hills from which cometh your help.

Beverly visiting New Bern.  Beverly was a genuine friend to everyone she knew. I’m sorry for our loss. 

Hello Rudy, Faye, Sonya, and the entire Ellis family from Merle Carlton Green and Emily Carlton Rogers and Timothy Carlton, your NE Baptist Church and Chapel Hill friends!  We are so sorry to hear of the loss of Bevely.  We all grew up together at NorthEast Church, and we have too many fond memories to begin to document.  Beverly sang in the Young  People's choir with Merle, and she always had a beautiful smile and sweet dialogue with Emily and Tim.  Our mom and dad, (Dorothy and Charlie Carlton) loved her immensely!  May your hearts be comforted throughout this time of deep bereavement.  We love you with all our hearts.

So sorry to hear the news of Beverly's passing. She was a wonderful colleague at GSK - I have many fond memories of conversations full of wisdom and laughter in her office in the South Expansion building, back in the day.  RIP dear Beverly.

Beverly was truly one of the kindest people I've ever met.  She had a heart of gold, a wicked sense of humor and a great sense of style (glasses, bags and shoes all had to match).  I had the pleasure of working with her @ GSK and learned so much from her over the years.  She loved her family and would share pictures and stories about her children and grandchildren all the time - they were her pride and joy.  

Gone too soon for sure.  I'll miss you, Beverly.




My heartfelt sympathies and condolences to Beverly’s family and friends.  She was a wonderful colleague, friend and mentor in the nearly 25 years we worked together at GSK.  Her warmth, sense of humor and fashion style were only surpassed by her kindness and ever-present smile.  May she rest in peace with the angels.

Beverly lived her values:  she was unceasingly kind, compassionate, and courageous.  She demonstrated the utmost integrity and honesty, excelling at both leadership and friendship.   As one of her direct reports for a time, I always looked forward to seeing her smiling face, sharing in her sense of fun, and seeing whether she would wear the same pair of shoes more than once!  My heartfelt condolences go out to her family and to the many friends and colleagues whose lives she so gracefully and lovingly touched.  She is among the angels now.

I met Beverly at Glaxo many years ago.  We survived the mergers of GlaxoWellcome, GSK and continued to work together until I left.  Beverly was a strong & excellent leader.  I admired her so much and respected her values.  Beverly had a great sense of humor and would give me that look if she had concerns about how I was going to handle something.  She definitely made an impact on me as a leader at GSK.  Beverly will be missed greatly.  My sincere condolences to the family.  

So sad to hear the news of Beverly’s passing. She was a truly lovely lady whose warmth and kindness lit up a room. She was a great leader and role model combining humility, pragmatism and wisdom in support of all around her. She was also gifted with a wicked sense of humour and a fabulous sense of fashion. It was an absolute honour to have worked with her and my heart goes out to her family and friends during this difficult time. 

My Condolences to the family. I went to Pearsontown School with Beverly.She was very kind and friendly to me .

Dear Rudy and Faye: Nell and I were shocked and sad to learn of the death of Beverly at such a young age. We did not get to know Beverly after her childhood but the comments of her friends speak volumes about what a special person she was. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.


I’m so sorry for your sorrow and loss. I know your mother is smiling somewhere, as she watches over all of you.

May she Rest Peacefully in heaven. 

My most concern condolences to the entire family. My God comfort you now and always. 

Love,

My deepest condolences to Beverly’s family, she was an outstanding HR professional and a beautiful human being.
I had the good fortune of her support at the RTP site during my time at GSK.   We worked very closely together and I’ll never forget her terrific sense of style, sense of humor and compassion for the many people we looked after in our groups.  
An irreplaceable loss for those of us here on Earth, but her place in Heaven has been assured for a long, long time.  

My deepest sympathies to the family.  Rest In Peace and with the angels Beverly.  You were an angel on earth to so many.  You are gone too soon my friend.  
Beverly was the first person I met in my first interview with HR at Glaxo 33 years ago.  Not only were we Glaxo, GW and ultimately GSK colleagues, we were friends, birthday buddies (one day apart) Gemini twins/triplets along with Lynn Harris. I will always remember Beverly for her fashion statement-coordinated outfit,  glasses and shoes and her warm smile and big hello. 

I am grateful for the career advice Beverly gave me while working at GSK.  The advice was insightful and kind.  
She was also a big supporter of the Bring Your Child to Work day.  
My sincere condolences to her family.
Liz Nulton-Bodiford

Beverly was one of the kindest friends I had while at GSK.  Her glowing smile and huge heart lit up every room she entered.  This picture was taken at my retirement party back in 2013.  She was so easy to talk to and her wisdom still sticks with me today.  Rest easy Beverly!!❤️

Dear Rudy, 

Sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers for you & your family. I knew you at Peoples Security in the 90’s. 

Sincerely,
David Russell
