Beverly Stroud’s life brought joy, love and comfort to so many. We both worked for the Houston ISD where Beverly was highly regarded as an instructional supervisor. Her amazing ability to make everyone feel so special did not end with her professional career. She was the most incredible hostess; opening her gorgeous home with such grace and elegance. Beverly’s flair for fashion was obvious, too, and her style was timeless. Beverly Stroud had great pride and steadfast love for her family and friends. But most of all, Beverly loved Jesus. She was a beloved, faithful member of Clear Lake Presbyterian Church and I so looked forward to seeing Beverly in our Sunday School class. One thing I could always count on with Beverly and that was her “contagious” smile. When Beverly Stroud smiled the world smiled with her! Now our dear Beverly is smiling as she rests in the Arms of Jesus.
She has always been a kindhearted sweet person. I’m glad I had the chance to have her part of my life.
Beverly Stroud, the most wonderful woman God allowed me to have in my life, a warrior full of love, positive, empathetic, and cheerful, a great spiritual advisor, may she rest in the arms of the Lord Jesus.
If you were fortunate enough to know Beverly then you were truly blessed. I feel so special that I knew Beverly as a special friend. We had so many great times together as coworkers and friends. She was like the sister I never had. Her faith was strong and contagious. When I was with her I could feel her love for the Lord. I know Jesus said when she arrived “Well done my tru and fateful servant ”
Rest in peace sweet friend.
Beverly was not just a wonderful guest at Beyond Beaute, she was a long time friend.
I loved talking with her adventures when she came in. Although we will miss her beautiful smile and endless joy she brought to us, I can see her running through the fields of Heaven pain free and that alone brings me peace.

I will miss Beverly. Our Special Topics Sunday Sunday School class will really miss her. I felt a kinship with her.
Miss Beverly was an absolute joy and light. She had an enduring spirit and shared her wisdom with so many. Everytime I saw her she looked amazing – dressed in beautiful colors and her signature heels. She was always so kind to me and everyone I saw her interact with. I noticed how she slowed down to actually listen to others, always looking for a way to offer help. It seemed her passion in life was to love others, it just radiated from her. I know it was because she knew the Lord. I miss her, and am so thankful I had the opportunity to learn from her just by being a friend. My deepest condolences to her family during this time of difficult loss. May He hold you close in this time of grief, and remind you of all the beautiful memories.
