Beverly P. McMullan

McMullan, Beverly P
Beverly McMullan was born in Albuquerque, NM on July 17, 1953.  She left us too soon on December 26, 2016.  She is survived by her husband and partner of 43 years Jay Bell, daughter Melissa Bell, son James “Ryan” Bell and wife Amanda and grandchildren Avery and JB.  She is also survived by her mother Mary McMullan, and siblings, Jude McMullan, Marilyn Manatt, Robert McMullan, Sallie Clifford, Tommy McMullan, Janie Blue, Sheila McMullan, their respective spouses, and many cherished nieces and nephews.  She is preceded in death by her father Jim McMullan, siblings Jimmy McMullan, Barbara McMullan, and Coeen McMullan.
    
Beverly worked in the travel industry for four decades and retired from Southwest Airlines after 22 years of service.  She was also the acting president of the Machinist and Aerospace Workers Union, Local Lodge 1635, a position she held for 15 years.
    
Beverly loved life and lived it to the fullest.  Of all the things she did, she deeply loved and lived for her family and friends.  Her greatest delight were her children Melissa and Ryan and grandchildren Avery and JB.  She looked forward to every visit and never missed an opportunity to be with them.  And she loved being a “Grandma”.

When she wasn’t spending time with family and loved ones, you could have caught her working on the latest campaign trail and protecting worker rights at the state legislature.  She believed in fairness, equality, and was extremely compassionate for helping those in need.  Beverly had a heart of gold!  She never met a stranger and always left you with a hug and a smile.  She loved her family and friends and never missed a moment to tell them she loved them.  We will never forget her infectious laugh, her big smile, and her great big hugs.  In summary, she was amazing and will be a tremendous loss to this world.  Her spirit and vivaciousness will greatly be missed.  

We will be celebrating Beverly’s life on December 31st, 2016 at First Baptist Church, 3906 19th Ave, Rio Rancho 87124.  Her viewing will be at 9:00 a.m. and her service at 11:00 a.m. with a reception following.  Flowers, prayers, and cards can be sent to Daniel’s Funeral home 4310 Sara Rd SE, Rio Rancho, NM 87124.
