In March, 2007, Beverly met Thomas K.

She was also a success at managing department store photography studios. Her last employer named the Beverly Lindsey Sales Center in her honor in its new offices. Beverly retired after 2010 when diagnosed with lung cancer. Chemotherapy treatments over the 4 1/2 years were successful, but other medical conditions led to her death on October 20, 2015. She died at home under the care of a hospice service.

*During the spring of 2006, Tom had told his cocker spaniel dog Chin-Chin that it seemed likely that the only way he would meet a woman whom he would want to marry would be after a meteorite fell in front of him. Tom goes back every now and then to the northeast corner of Lynda Lane and South Cooper Street in Arlington, Texas to look for some fragment of the meteorite that must have fallen to earth nearby.
