Beverly Richards passed away in Lakeport, Calif., after a brief illness.

Beverly was born in Fall River, Mass.

After her natural father's untimely death, her mother moved herself and four small children from Massachusetts to Los Angeles, Calif.

Beverly's mother remarried Richard Foster who legally adopted her children and raised them in Los Angeles as his own.

After high school graduation, Beverly married Jack White and began her own family. They had three children – Kathy, John and Michael – who were raised in Whittier, Calif.

In 1972 the couple amicably divorced and in 1976 Beverly and her three grown children moved to Santa Cruz County, Calif. There she bought a house in Aptos and worked for the county welfare department.

In 1988 Beverly married Seth Richards in Laguna Beach, Calif. She obtained both real estate broker and notary licenses and was a top producer at Seven Gables Co. in Tustin, Calif.
 
Following Seth's retirement in 2000, they moved first to Carmichael, Calif., and finally to a smaller home in Lake County, Calif.

Beverly is survived by her husband, Seth; three children; two brothers; a sister; eight grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.

A private service is planned in Santa Cruz.
