Beverly Henry Gill passed away peacefully in her home on December 27, 2020, 3 days before her 97 ^th birthday. Bev was born to James and Carrie Henry on a farm near Dover, Minnesota on December 30 ^th , 1923.

Bev enjoyed growing up on the farm, helping her dad outside a lot, and even learning to drive a tractor at a very young age. She remembers, at the age of twelve, driving her mother, who never learned to drive, to visit relatives in Brooklyn Center, MN. After graduating from Dover High School Bev worked at Mayo Clinic for 6 years.

Bev met her future husband Robert (Bob) Gill when he gave her and two other girls a ride home from the roller skate rink in St. Charles, MN. They dated for several years and were married on May 25, 1946, after Bob was discharged from the Navy having served during WWII. They lived together in Rochester for over 73 years, raising three sons and establishing and working in the businesses, Robert Gill Realtor- Builder, founded in 1963, and Northern Lights & Furnishings, founded in 1977. Bev felt a deep loss when Bob died September 3, 2019, but she constantly reminded her family that she and Bob had a wonderful life for which she could not be more thankful.

Beverly is survived by her three sons, Gregory (Jill) of Rochester, Kirk (Jennie Wilson) of Rochester, and Lincoln of Whitefish, MT; 10 grandchildren; 18 great-grandchildren; her brother, Lincoln Henry of Rochester; and numerous nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by her parents, a brother Burton Henry, her sisters Evelyn Lenn and Charlotte Dickerson, and an infant daughter.

Fond memories and prayers are the best remembrances that can be given at this time.
