Memorial: Beverly Osterman

Beverly Sue Osterman

Type of Sarcoma: Leiomyosarcoma

Date of Diagnosis: 2004

Beverly Sue Osterman was a beautiful, strong and incredibly caring woman.  She was a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother and grandmother and a dedicated friend to many people.

Bev had a natural talent to positively touch the lives of everyone one that had the fortune to meet her.  Those of us lucky enough to have her as family or friend, she gave so much of herself and we will use the lessons she taught us for the rest of our lives.  

In a note Bev wrote (November 29th, 2008):

“I have lived my life falling asleep each night thinking

about what I was going to get to do the next day. 

There haven’t been very many days in my 60 years

I haven’t looked forward to”.  

On May 7th 2009, after five years battling Leiomyosarcoma, Bev passed away surrounded by family.
