Beverly M. Gregory

Beverly (Mirando) Gregory, 58, of Southington, CT passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Tuesday, October 24, 2023 after a brief battle with cancer. She was the loving wife of Scott Gregory for nearly 32 years and the devoted mother of their son, Dylan S. Gregory.

Beverly was born on February 27, 1965 in Waterbury, CT to the late Robert and Margaret (Douty) Mirando.

Beverly graduated from Southington High School, Class of 1983. She worked as a hairdresser at JCPenney’s for many years before taking a job at Southington High School in the cafeteria, where she was the favorite lunch lady to many students for over 15 years. Most recently, Bev was working as a cashier at Lowe’s in Southington. Beverly centered her life around caring for her family. She will be remembered for her warm smile and the way she was like a “Mom” to everyone, especially her nieces and nephews, who affectionately called her “Auntie BeBe.” Beverly loved her dogs and enjoyed camping, snowmobiling and taking care of her plants, especially the beautiful sunflowers she grew every year.  

In addition to her husband Scott and son Dylan, Beverly is survived by 3 sisters, Victoria Testa of Oxford, twin sister, Barbara Long and husband Michael of Plantsville and Tina Mirando and Simmie Freeman of Bristol, 7 nieces and nephews: Tommy, Jordan, Justin, Nicole, Josh, Michael and Rachel, a great-nephew, Nathan, and 2 great-nieces, Ariah and Genevieve, and many aunts and uncles. Bev’s family would like extend a special thank you to her uncle and aunt, Lyman and Marcy Daigle of Bethlehem. Beverly also leaves behind her brother-in-law, Steven Gregory, and wife, Valerie of Southington, and many wonderful friends, including her dearest friends, Denise Hoyt, Wendy Popielarczyk, and Connie Johnson.
