We will always remember Bev’s beauty, charm and zest for life. She had many talents two of them stand out, she could always put a smile on your face or lift your spirits with a kind word, a joke or with a sweet treat she made. Speaking of sweet treats, her second talent best cook, hands down!!
Our kids were so blessed to have Bev as a Grandmother and we were so blessed to have her as a friend. She will be sorrowfully missed.
Our condolences to the family.

Hal, sorry to hear about your wife’s passing. We are out of town so will not be able to be at the service.
Milo & I just heard of Bev’s death & want to express to the family our sincere condolences. Bev & Hal were some of the first people we met when we came to Buffalo! They were always so friendly & welcoming when we started to golf. Bev always had a smile & kind words of making you feel like part of their family! She will be fondly remembered for all her GOOD deeds. The angels are singing to have such a special person join their choir!! Our prayers are with you all.
Your inviting, kind and joyous nature will be greatly missed.
To the Clifton family we extend our deepest sympathy. Since I heard about Bev’s passing I have been recalling all the family get togethers we had when we were younger, days at the golf course and nights at 55 East. I also remember I always thought you guys had the coolest basement when you lived by Frankies. Unfortunately we are unable to attend the funeral but wanted you to know that you are in our thoughts. Take care of each other and God Bless-Sandi
Dear Jo, Benny, Hal and Hal Sr.; So sorry to hear about your mom and beloved wife. I remember Bev as being so kind and generous, always with a smile on her face. It was so much fun hanging at your home. Bev made everyone that came through your door so welcome. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Love, Darci
