Beverly Godfirnon, 77, of Fayetteville, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, in Fayetteville. She was born March 21, 1947, in Bell, California, to William and Mary Edwards.

Beverly dedicated her life to her family and her faith, joyfully sharing her talents through music. She was a gifted musician, playing the piano and organ for numerous churches throughout her life, touching the hearts of many with her commitment and skill. Her deep love for music led her to Calvary Baptist Church in La Puente, California, where she enjoyed singing alto in the Ambassador Chorale from 1972 to 1982. After moving to Fayetteville in 2005, Beverly continued her service, playing the piano and assisting the choir at Black Oak Baptist Church for ten years, a ministry she cherished.

She was recently preceded in death by her beloved husband, Lou Godfirnon, with whom she shared 58 wonderful years of marriage.

Beverly is survived by her daughter, Shanelle Godfirnon of Chino, California; her son, Louis Godfirnon (wife Terilynn) of Fort Worth, Texas; two grandchildren, Kevin Armstrong (wife Jennifer) and Victoria Watson (husband Josh); and two great-grandchildren, Michael and Logan.

Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Beard’s Funeral Chapel.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Beverly’s memory to Ridgeview Baptist Church, 1850 E Huntsville Rd, Fayetteville, AR 72701.

She touched the lives of many and made friends wherever she went; we will miss her joyful spirit.
