She was born in Goffstown, NH on September 6, 1954, a daughter of the late Frederick A. and Rae (Fiske) Todd.

In addition to her parents, she is pre-deceased by her brother Theodore “Ted” Todd who died in 2004.

Bev graduated from Merrimack High School, Class of 1972, and was a graduate of Keene State College in 1976. She spent her working career of 37 years in the Bedford School District as a second-grade teacher. Outside of work she had passions for her gardens, taking trips to beaches in Maine, crocheting blankets for loved ones, and walks around town, known by many as the "walking lady." She was also a member of Merrimack Valley Baptist Church.

More than anything she loved spending time with her family and treasured her time with her grandchildren. Bev will be remembered for her kindness, generosity, and selfless nature.
