| Published by Mohave Daily News Online on May 8, 2022 - Bullhead City, Arizona - Beverly Henkoski, age 84, a resident of Bullhead City, Arizona peacefully passed away in her sleep in the morning hours of April 5, 2022. Beverly was born an only child in Brawley, California on April 1, 1938 to William Russel Johnson and Ruth Lorean Johnson who were both originally from Oklahoma. Beverly raised her children and had a long career in the trucking industry as an owner of American Contract Carriers in Southern California. She moved to Bullhead City in 1986 with her husband Michael to enjoy all of the outdoor activities that the area had to offer. She worked in Laughlin at Harrahs Casino as a Black Jack Dealer for over 20 years and only her health forced her to retire at the age of 81. She was an amazing woman who would do anything for her friends and family. Beverly was diagnosed with Terminal Breast Cancer in 2019 and was told she had months to live but she wasn't ready to give up and put up a long hard fight. She was a strong independent and very determined woman who exited this world only when she was too tired to fight anymore. Beverly leaves behind four children, Deanie Willis of Independence Missouri, Diana Tucker of Calimesa, California, Vincent Hammer of Bullhead City, Arizona and Stephanie Garrett of Tubac, Arizona; 13 grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren. She will never be forgotten and may she forever Rest In Peace. A private memorial service will be held with her family in the near future. In lieu of flowers it is asked that a donation be made to the American Cancer Society in honor of her memory. |
