Beverly Ann Bravo

Beverly Ann Bravo was born in Providence, Rhode Island on June 21, 1941. A free spirit and animal lover from the beginning, music and art were ingrained in her soul. A natural talent, she taught herself to draw, paint, crochet, knit and play nearly every musical instrument she could get her hands on. Beverly had a smile that could light up a room and it was not uncommon for her to find the perfect moment, in any situation, to break out into song and dance! She loved to embarrass her children and grandchildren and although she was very good at it, it only made them love her more. In 2009 Bev met the man she had waited a long time for. Terry Gleason not only embraced her wild nature but was always there, holding her hand in support. As she shined in the spotlight, Terry was always nearby, smiling with pride. With a family too large to name them all, Beverly spent her life surrounded by love, laughter and a healthy dose of sarcasm. She taught everyone she met to sing at the top of their lungs, cherish this world and all it's creatures, and never take life too seriously! Bev rode off to the golden stables in the sky on January 21st, 2023, where we are certain she took a long, deep breath of a smell she's missed greatly. Should we ever second guess ourselves, or think we are too much, or too proud, we will think of you, and know we are exactly who we should be. We love you.
