Beverly was a native of Waco, born September 26, 1944 to the late Leonard McDonald and Ruth Copaus Buckner. She attended local area schools, more specifically South Junior High where she met the love of her life, Charlie Haigood. She was married at the young of 14 years old on November 8, 1958. Beverly had a passion for her family and spending time with her grandchildren was one of her greatest joys. She was an excellent cook, her homemade biscuits and sugar syrup will be deeply missed. Beverly also enjoyed playing BINGO and playing on her tablet. Beverly was a strong woman of faith and deeply loved being at her home church, New Hope Baptist Church in Riesel. She made the heartfelt decision to be rebaptized in 2014; it was a special time for her.
