Beverly (“Bev”) Mae Yost was born in Pasadena, California, the only child of Ercell and Neva (Cazel) Fuller. Bev grew up in Southern California and graduated from Santa Ana High School. She later met and married Harrison (“Harry”) Yost, a U.S. Marine. They lived in California, Washington and Oregon and had three sons together – James, John and Jeff. Bev later settled in Oregon’s Willamette Valley where she served the State of Oregon through roles in the Department of Human Services. Bev and her then husband Glenn Hescock retired to Baker City, Oregon. She was a prolific traveler – visiting 5 continents and cruising all over the world. She was also an avid quilter, baker and host to family and friends. In her later years, Bev moved to Cottage Grove where she was an active member of the Riverside Community Church of God.
