With her husband, Jim, they operated The Heavenly Inn Restaurant in New Scotland, NY for 15 years. Beverly went on to graduate from the Culinary Institute of America, in Hyde Park, NY. Through her membership with the American Culinary Association she became a certified executive chef. Beverly and Jim relocated to Folly Beach SC., where she shared her art of cooking with many a diner at local restaurants. As a newly retired senior, Beverly attended the College of Charleston, completed her bachelor’s degree in education and went on to teach in special education for the Charleston public schools.
