She was born August 7, 1948, in Greenleaf, Kansas, the daughter of Alfred and Alice (Rahe) Spreer. She graduated from Perry Rural High School in 1966.
Beverly was a homemaker who stayed home to take care of her children while they were young. She also took care of several of the neighborhood children during that time. When her children started school, she worked in the cafeteria in the Perry-Lecompton school district with her mother. Beverly then worked at Aeroquip which later became Kenodyne. She remained there until 1993 when her first grandchild was born. Family was very important to Beverly, so she then stayed home and cared for all 5 of her grandchildren over the next 16 years.
