Jessie Reves Beers, 94, of Batesville passed Wednesday, January 22, 2025.
She was born October 3, 1930 in Pfeiffer, Arkansas to Eugene H Reves and Mary Bevans Reves.
Jessie was a member of West Baptist Church where she taught Sunday school for many years. She also volunteered her time at WRMC. She was born with a disability but she didn’t let it hinder her in any way. Jessie was strong willed, full of confidence, always remained very active, and dressed to the 9’s. Jessie was a good neighbor to those she lived next to. She loved to knit and always gifted her knitting to everyone she knew. She was an avid reader and loved reading her Bible.
Survivors include her daughter, Margaret Jane Sherrill (Bobby) of League City, Texas; two grandchildren, Rischelle Thomas (Bobby) and Nathan Duncan; five great-grandchildren, John Hunter Perry, Wyatt Perry, Ava Perry, Alyssa Ober, and Drake Thomas; and several nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Charles Beers; daughter Meta Carol Duncan; brother, Vaughn Reves; two sisters, Ruth Reves Jones and Mary Faye Reves; and great-granddaughter, Sarah Perry.
Graveside services will be private. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
Memorials may be made in her honor to West Baptist Church’s Benevolence Fund, 1100 N Central Ave, Batesville, AR 72501.
