Beverly Jean Allen, age 92, of Prospect, passed away on November 7, 2026 at the Trihealth Hospice of Cincinnati. Vibrant of spirit and tireless, Beverly lived a rich, full life defined by dedication to her family, her students, and her many accomplishments. Born on December 7, 1933, in Richwood, to John and Florence (Allgower) Brobeck, Beverly was an honor scholar of the Richwood High School Class of 1951, where she was crowned Homecoming Queen. She went on to attend The Ohio State University, earning her bachelor’s degree in education in 1955. Later in life, she furthered her dedication to learning by earning her master’s degree in education from Mt. St. Joseph University. Beverly spent her professional career as a dedicated high school teacher at Pleasant High School, shaping the futures of countless students by teaching secretarial skills, shorthand, typing, and bookkeeping. She and Bob were members at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Prospect for many years. A true Buckeye at heart, she proudly wore her Ohio State wear on football game days and cheered on her alma mater with enthusiasm. An accomplished pianist, her favorite piece to play and listen to was Claude Debussy’s Clair de Lune, alongside other classical music and big band tunes. She took immense pride in her German heritage and enjoyed telling her ancestors' journey from Ulm, Germany, to German Village in Columbus, and eventually to the Hotel Villa in Richwood. She looked forward to attending the annual Schlegel reunion every year, keeping closely connected with her extended family. Smart and articulate, she always enjoyed a wonderful, engaging conversation. Known for her wonderful work ethic, Beverly preferred working over resting. She took great joy in keeping a tidy, immaculate home—her home being where she and Bob spent wonderful time together, as well as fond memories of Sunday drives to visit family and friends. She instilled the value of hard work and education into her family. Beverly was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Bob, with whom she shared a wonderful marriage starting on July 28, 1956, in Richwood, until his passing. She is survived by her loving children, Doug (Dee) Allen of Columbia, TN and DeAnn (Chris) Fleming of Cincinnati; her cherished grandchildren, Bram (Mary Jane) Allen, Brogan Allen, Alexa (Jake) Clark, Zach Fleming, Mallory Fleming, and Ryan Fleming; and her precious great-grandchildren, Beckham Clark, Kellan Clark, Violet Fleming, and Wells Allen. She is also survived by her Dear sisters, Martha Park of Oxnard, CA, Kay (Bob) Woodrow of Camden, NC and Josephine (Jim) Mayers of Richwood, along with many extended family members and friends. Funeral services will be held Saturday November 14, 2026 at 11:00 am at the Stofcheck-Ballinger Funeral Home in Richwood. Pastor Joseph Rhea will officiate. Burial will follow in the Claibourne Cemetery. Friends may call one hour prior to the service at the funeral home in Richwood.
