Beverly Donovan

Beverly Ann Donovan, 83, of Crystal Lake, went to be with the Lord on March 9, 2015. She was born May 24, 1931, in Chicago, to Hugh and Ann Murray.

On June 17, 1950, she married William Donovan at Queen of Angels Church in Chicago. They spend most of their years in Mt. Prospect raising their five girls. Upon Bill’s death in 1998, Beverly moved out to Crystal Lake.

Beverly will be deeply missed as she spent most of her life devoted to her family. Her strength, compassion, and love for her Lord will be forever celebrated. Just knowing she is with her Savior along with her loving husband, Bill, brings comfort to us as a family as we say good bye.

Survivors include her daughters, Gail (Roy) Conwell, Jan (Tom) Cowan, Colleen Huenink, Karen Little, and Maureen (James) Gibbons; fifteen grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren.

Visitation for Beverly will take place on Saturday, March 14th, from 11:30 until the time of the funeral service at 1:30 at Harvest Bible Chapel, 580 Tracy Trail, Crystal Lake. Pastor Greg Bradshaw will be officiating.

In lieu of flowers, memorials in Beverly’s name can be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation at www.jdrf.org .
