Beverly Ann (Bartz) Morawski was born on May 6th, 1936 in Corpus Christi, TX to Walter and Ruth (Duke) Bartz and passed away on February 15th, 2022 at her home in Fairview, OK.  A private Family Burial will be at a later date.  Arrangements are by Fairview Funeral Home Inc.

Beverly grew up in Corpus Christi, then Waco, TX with her two brothers, Arthur and Robert. While attending Baylor University, she met the love of her life, Robert Wayne Morawski, who was stationed in Texas during his service in the United States Navy. They were married on October 26th, 1955 and moved to Hawaii for the duration of Wayne's Naval service.

The couple settled down in Mustang, OK, and soon welcomed the birth of their first child, a daughter, Patrice, followed by a second daughter, Melody, then a son, John. Beverly loved being a mother. Nurturing and steadfast, she stayed home with the children until they were grown.

Beverly became an Oklahoma City University graduate, who made her career, first as the Director of Nursing at Hillcrest Hospital. She went above and beyond for her patients, often doing her own research to give them the best possible care. Later she would teach 8th grade science, spending many years sharing her love of research with the children until her retirement.

When Wayne and Beverly retired, they began building their home on the family farm in Fairview, while helping Wayne's parents with the farming and caring for them until their passing.

Beverly loved music and dancing, traveling, visiting different countries, art, nature, learning, reading, and substitute teaching. She was a very deep thinker, jumping whole heartedly into the subject at hand. She'd often call her friends and family to enthusiastically share what she had learned. She was a faithful Christian, with a heart for serving God, praying for and helping others.

Wayne and Beverly enjoyed 66 years of marriage, their bond and devotion growing deeper with every year. They were only separated by death for 28 days

Beverly is survived by her children, Patrice (James) Walters, Melody Wilkinson, and John (Leeann) Morawski, one sister in law, Estelle Bartz, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her mother and father, one son in law, Eric Wilkinson, and her husband, Wayne Morawski.
