Beverly M. Ballard

Beverly was born Wednesday, May 22, 1957, in Pennsylvania to the late Thomas and Lois McDermott. She was a graduate of Lackey High School in La Platta, Maryland. She worked as a sales manager for Gibson Greetings and as a merchandiser for Driveline Retail for many years. She was an old detective/mystery show enthusiast, but her passion in life was taking care of and spending time with her grandchildren.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of thirty-three years, George Edward Ballard.

Left to cherish her memory are her son, Shawn Ballard (Pamela Phillips) of Henrietta; brother, Mark McDermott of Bryans Road, MD and two sisters, Brenda, and Jill. She is also survived by eight grandchildren, Luke, Jaydha, Layla, Liberty, Jayden, Sofia, Corbin, and Bryson.

There will be a private celebration of Beverly’s life for family and friends.
