I have known and loved Bevy for a very long time. I recall her transition from an RN on the floors at Kaiser to joining the "A" team in hospital administration. She was a wonderful woman to know and work with. Her cheerful smile just lit up the room. We will miss you Bevy, but know that you are in the hands of our Lord and at peace.
My prayers are with your girls and new grandson.

To Beverly's Family,
This is such a great loss for you, and for all of us within her Kaiser Permanente family. She will be missed, and there will be a void in the compassionate example she set. She loved her work, and the people around her. It showed in every action she took each day. Our prayers are with all of you, and we know Bev will live on in our memories. May you find comfort in your memories. Fondly, Pam C.

Comment: The last time I saw Manuel, he was a little boy in his dads arms. From what I have read, I can see that Manuel Jr. had the same happy and joyful heart that was in his dad. I miss my cousin Manuel Sr., and now we will miss you also. But your memory will live forever in the hearts of those who knew you and loved you. My heart and prayers go out to your mom, your sister, grandparents and the rest of the Macias family who loved you dearly.

Sue and I have only had the opportunity of getting to know Chris since last October, when we met at his wedding to Sharon. We have been close friends with Sharon's family for the better part of 35+ years. Although we have gotten together with Chris and Sharon only a few times since last October, those times together were very meaningful. It became quite obvious that Chris was that very special person, and that he and Sharon were truely meant for each other, and very much in love. After reading all the "memories" from family and friends, who have had the good fortune to really get to know and enjoy Chris, we feel that we have come to know him so much more, in these past few days. We wish we had the opportunity to get to know him even better. We take so many things in life for granted, that when one of those precious things is taken from us, we cannot accept, much less understand, WHY ???? It just seems that, at times, LIFE is not JUST nor FAIR. We should vow to never take life for granted, for we never know what tomorrow brings. Chris, you have given us a valuable lesson to be learned, and you will forever be in our minds and hearts. Sharon, Sam and Katie you will always be in our thoughts and prayers. May Chris be close by to help guide you through these trying times ahead. GOD BLESS....

Keep in mind
  • The Times initially mispelled the name of Michael Hammersley and Beverly Mosley.
  • The coroner's office reported a 26th victim the afternoon of Sept. 15, but a few hours later said the tally was 25.
