Beverly graduated from Faith Christian School in 1991 and attended college at Ozark Christian College, Crowder College, and graduated from Missouri Southern State University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration. She lived in the Newton County community her entire life, and before becoming a mom, she was employed with Ragland Mills for several years.

On April 20, 2002, she married Brian Wisdom in Neosho, Missouri, and of this union, two children, Daniel and Josiah, were born. Beverly was a homemaker through and through. She was very devoted to her family and had the privilege of homeschooling the boys to ensure they had the best care a mom could provide. She was a member of the Abundant Life Assembly of God Church in Neosho, was on the praise team, and assisted with the outreach ministries. 

Beverly also served at Company Junction Church in Granby with her father, playing piano and leading praise and worship. She dearly loved to play the piano. Beverly's favorite pastimes include playing board games and spending time with her family.
