Her husband, John H. Bushnell Sr, died before her, as did her parents, Kenneth and Ada; her grandchildren Brittney and Marissa; her brothers, John and Butch; and her sister Linda.

At this time, the family has planned a private celebration of life

“In lieu of flowers,” her family wrote, “please send cards to the family or plant a flower or tree in her name, as Beverly adored her flower beds.”
