Beverly Ann Blair Wilson was born Oct. 22, 1929, in Mason City, Iowa, and died Sept. 22, 2025, in Chattanooga, Tenn. When Beverly was five years old, the family moved to Madison, Tenn., where she lived until she married Bill Wilson ’50, in August 1949. The newlyweds moved to Lincoln, Neb., for a year while Bill finished college, then they lived in Chunky, Miss., for two years while working at Pine Forest Academy. Following that, they moved back to Madison where all three of their children were born. In 1958 the family moved to Fletcher, N.C., where Beverly raised the children and worked part-time in evenings at a hospital telephone switchboard while Bill was president of Mountain Sanitarium and Hospital. Their next move took them to Hinsdale, Ill., where they lived from 1963-76. At Hinsdale Hospital Beverly worked at the switchboard and in the patient admitting office while Bill served in hospital administration. She also was active in the Home and School program. The couple also lived in the Washington, D.C., area for three years. In 1980, the Wilson family moved to Orlando, Fla., where Beverly became “the face of Florida Hospital” through her work at the main-entrance information desk. Many people were impacted by her warm, friendly personality. The couple stayed in Florida until 2006 when they retired and moved to Chattanooga, Tenn., to be near children and grandchildren. From 2006 until present, Beverly volunteered at Samaritan Center, It is Written, and Southern Adventist University. She and Bill were generous supporters of education, and her open heart “adopted” many young people over the years. Beverly was an excellent cook, teaching this skill to her children and sharing it with thousands of people who enjoyed a meal in her home.
