FARMINGTON - Beverly (Burgess) LaBreyere of Farmington passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on October 15, 2015 at the age of 75. She was born October 25, 1939 in Roseville, Michigan to the late Frank Joseph and Leanna (Barnes) Burgess. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 40 years, John H. LaBreyere in 1998; a sister, Joann Burgess and a brother, Joey Burgess. Beverly was a 1957 graduate of Farmington High School and shortly thereafter married her high school sweetheart, John.

Just prior to her retirement she was instrumental in assisting her brother, Joey and his business partner in the development of the Maple Valley business district. A lifelong Christian, Beverly was a woman of strong faith who demonstrated her love for Christ through many loving words and deeds. She enjoyed countless hours reading, annual road trips with her sisters and spending time with her family.
