Beverly Thompson February 4, 1929 - November 29, 2020 Beverly Thompson began her next and greatest adventure, passing away November 29 in Spanish Fork, Utah. She will be remembered most for making those around her feel special, having a grateful heart and a cheerful disposition, her inherent satisfaction with the simple things, and her youthful and playful nature. Lola Beverly Atwood was born in Murray, Utah on February 4, 1929 to Guy Hammond Atwood and Melba King. She grew up in Marysvale, Utah, but her independent nature and thirst for adventure led her to strike out on her own. She traveled north on what she later wrote was her Alaskan Odyssey, and there she met the love of her life, Arthur (Jack) Thompson. The couple married on February 9, 1952 and together continued the adventure moving from Alaska to Florida and back to Alaska. They eventually settled in Ashland, Oregon. Along the way, their family grew to include two daughters, Jan Thompson and Terry (Stuart) Newton, 5 grandchildren, and 17 great-grandchildren. The most important things in Beverly's life were her family, church, service, travel, music, art, and education. Beverly also loved to write, and published many articles and stories about her adventures. She will be greatly missed, but fondly remembered by all who knew her.
