Beverly Ann Minner

Beverly "Bev" A. Minner passed away on November 13, 2025, at the Delaware Hospice Center in Milford. Bev was born to the late Thomas E. and Roseine (Thorpe) Edwards on July 23, 1946 in Dover, DE.

Bev was a 1964 graduate of Felton High School. She retired as a medical transcriptionist from Bayhealth Kent General Hospital after many years of dedicated service. She was a lifetime member of Women of the Moose in Harrington, American Legion Auxiliary in Harrington, VFW Auxiliary in Milford, and a member of the Harrington Senior Center.

Bev inherited her strong work ethic and ego from her father. One always knew where they stood with her straightforwardness. She enjoyed reading, game shows, a good movie, crossword puzzles, and dancing in her early years.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded by her daughter Annette F. Minner; brother Thomas L. Edwards; nephew Hank W. Edwards; niece Ashley J. Edwards and best friend and confidant for 39 years William "Bill" Arrington.

Bev is survived by her grandson Jeffrey T. Minner and granddaughter in-law, Morgan, and great grandchildren Christian, Khari, Maya & Annie of Middletown; granddaughter Katie Crist and great grandchildren Clara, AJ & Giovanni of East Point, GA; brother David C. Edwards of Harrington.

Special thank you to Margaret Ann Smith and Lorrie Harrington for helping her through her darkest days.

At her request, there will be no services. Buy yourself a drink and think of Bev with laughter.

Arrangements are in the care of Berry-Short Funeral Home of Felton.
