Beverly was born on November 7, 1933, in Borger to Irene Geoffroy Parks and A.L. "Buddy" Parks. She married William "Bill" Chandler Pool, Sr. on September 1, 1951, in Morse. Beverly was a life-long Baptist, always attending a Baptist church wherever she lived - Morse, Amarillo, and Odessa. Beverly was a sweet, kindhearted woman. She had a love of hats - both wearing and collecting them. She enjoyed playing cards and games. Her true passion was coloring; in fact, it was her ministry. She would color pictures, bookmarks, cards, etc. and gift them to people at church, the sick, her caregivers, and her family members. Beverly kept a bag packed and always enjoyed getting to go - to local church functions; to watch her grands and great grands excel at sports and hobbies; and to weddings, family celebrations, and other events. Nothing brought more joy to her life than her family.
