Beverly Joan Anderson, 85, of Burlington, died Tuesday, Feb. 27, 2024, at her home.
Born Aug. 4, 1938, in Burlington, she was the daughter of John and Dorothy Nelson Elliott.
Beverly was a woman of many talents and worked for many companies in the area. You may have seen her working at the following; multiple factories in the area, Family Medicine, The Salvation Army Store, Hawkeye Motors, Automatic Vending at G.E., Antennacraft, Champion, Evan's Candy Store and recently at Smokey V's Food Truck.
She loved the Lord and enjoyed attending Harmony Bible Church. Beverly enjoyed crocheting, sewing and trips to the ocean. She would be found feeding the birds, tending to her plants, or sitting on the porch with her dog Manny, smoking and either working on a crossword or reading the Hawkeye. She could also be found riding on the back of a motorcycle, at the casino, or listing to Classic Rock or Elvis. But the most important thing to Beverly was her family. She would have Sunday Night Dinners, celebrate everyone's birthdays, and never missed her grandchildren's events.
She will be remembered for her wonderful simile, selflessness, and was always helping everyone.
Survivors include her daughters, Marcia Brockway of Burlington, Laura Teesdale of Mountain Rest, S.C., and Pam (V.J.) Koett of Burlington; five grandchildren, John, Drew (Elizabeth), Tommy (Joselyn), Lisa (Dennis), and Jimmy; one niece, Beth Elliott; one nephew, Tim Elliott; beloved dog, Mannny, and all of her extended family.
