May 19, 2026, 59, Princeton – Beverley Rose Hoskins passed away surrounded by the love of her family after a courageous battle with glioblastoma. She faced her illness with remarkable strength, unwavering faith, and the same selfless spirit that defined her life.
Even in her final days, Beverley continued thinking of others. In a final act of generosity, she chose to donate her brain and organs to Duke University to aid in glioblastoma research, hoping her gift might help bring healing and hope to others facing the same diagnosis.
Beverley proudly served her country in the United States Air Force for more than 20 years, dedicating her life to service. Her strong work ethic, leadership, and caring nature earned the respect and admiration of those who knew and worked with her.
Above all else, Beverley was a devoted mother to her three roses, Tiffany, Morgan, and Whitney. They were the greatest joy of her life. She loved them fiercely, supported them wholeheartedly, and took immense pride in the women they became.
Her faith in Jesus Christ was the cornerstone of her life. Through every season, especially in difficult times, Beverley leaned on her faith and found comfort in sharing encouragement, kindness, and hope with others. She had a servant’s heart and was always willing to help those in need.
Beverley found happiness in simple and meaningful things—spending time with her daughters, caring for her beloved dogs, crocheting, painting, traveling, and dreaming of peaceful days at the beach.
She will be remembered for her strength, honesty, compassion, and the genuine way she made others feel welcomed and loved. Her life was one of service, faith, and deep love for family.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Richard Clyde Skinner and Freda Gwendolyn Skinner.
Left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Tiffany and husband, Chad Keefer, Morgan and fiancée, Kyle Best, and Whitney; her brothers, Rodney Skinner and wife, Maria and Terence Skinner and wife, Danielle; as well as many extended family members, dear friends, and fellow brothers and sisters in service.
A celebration of Beverley’s life will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at Princeton Church of God with Pastor Matt Cornett officiating. Interment with full military honors will follow at Wayne Memorial Park.
To honor Beverley’s bright spirit, the family invites those attending the service to wear colorful clothing.
In lieu of flowers or food, memorial gifts may be made by helping someone in need or by making a donation to the Air Force Wounded Warrior Project.
Though she will be deeply missed, the love she shared and the legacy she leaves behind will remain in the hearts of all who knew her.
