Beverly Brunson
Beverly Brunson, 84, Shelbyville, KY died Friday, Feb. 9, 2018 following a long illness at
Westport Care Center. A native of Kalamazoo, MI, she was the daughter of the late Maurice and Olive Egberts.
She grew up in Kalamazoo and joined the U.S. Navy right out of high school. While in the Navy, she met and married her husband, William “Bill” Brunson. They lived in Plant City, FL nearly 50 years, where she was a cashier at Felton’s Grocery. She was everyone’s favorite cashier as she never met a stranger and could talk with anyone. Following her retirement and the passing of her husband, she relocated to Shelbyville, to be near her daughter. She was an avid reader, pinball wizard and enjoyed gardening and playing cards. She was Lutheran by faith.
In addition to her husband and parents, two sisters, Lois Smith and Irene Barkley, preceded her in death. Survivors include her daughter, Terry Vance of Shelbyville; her grandson, Andy Spetz of Chicago, IL and several nieces and nephews for whom she was known as the “favorite aunt.”
Cremation has been selected in accordance with her wishes. A private memorial service will be held later in Plant City, FL. The cremated remains will be privately interred.
Expressions of sympathy may be made to Hosparus of Louisville or Alzheimer's Association. Envelopes are available through the funeral home. Arrangements have been entrusted to Webb Funeral Home.
