In Memory of Beverly F. Nyberg


December 15, 1929 - May 28, 2025

Beverly Faye Nyberg, 95, peacefully went to meet her Lord, at her place of residence, Water’s Edge Senior Living Center, accompanied by family. She is remembered as a devoted wife to the late Wayne VanVonderen, and the late Robert Nyberg, a loving mother to her sons Jeffrey VanVonderen and the late Brent VanVonderen, and mother-in-law to Mary VanVonderen. As a grandmother, she found immense joy in her seven grandchildren: Natalie Johnson (VanVonderen), Nik VanVonderen, Nadya VanVonderen, Kara Root (VanVonderen), Erin Parks (VanVonderen), Jesi Stanley (VanVonderen), Callie VanVonderen, and eighteen great-grandchildren, whom she adored.

Born in Coleman, WI to William and Emma (Paul) Meyers, she graduated from Coleman High School in 1948. She was married to Wayne in 1950. Beyond her role as a mother, she worked as an office manager for the Coleman School District. When Wayne retired in 1980, they moved to Hayward, WI, where Beverly remained for the rest of her life. After Wayne’s death in 1982, she married Robert Nyberg in 1984. Beverly was a devoted church member all of her life, most recently at Spider Lake Baptist Church (Bethel Baptist).

Beverly will be most remembered for: her magical laugh and enduring playfulness; her great company and nurturing long-term friendships; her time spent in nature and her love of birds, especially hummingbirds; her vibrant flower beds and robust vegetable garden; her competitive spirit as a bowler, a card and cribbage player, and her mastery of crosswords and sudoku; her insatiable need to have a book in her hand and regular library visits; her baking, canning, and recipes that she passed down; and the sweet companionship she found in her lap dogs. She was present in every moment of her life, and made practical look extraordinary. Wayne told her with her laugh, she would live to be a hundred, and he wasn’t far off. In the lives of her grandchildren, Grandma Bev was and will remain a legend.

Beverly’s memorial service will be held at Spider Lake Church of Hayward, WI, at 11:00 AM on Saturday, June 14, 2025.
