Beverly Ernestine Malvin

Second generation native-born San Franciscan Beverly E. Malvin (nee Allen) died unexpectedly at Kaiser from septic shock, while surrounded by family. She is survived by her husband of 61 years, James Malvin, her children, grandchildren, cousins, nieces, and nephews. She was preceded in death by her father, Wilbur J. Allen, Sr. (1973); her mother, Sophie D. Allen (nee Boegershausen, 1998); and her brother, Wilbur J. Allen, Jr. (2020). Beverly was a descendant of James Allen, progenitor of a historically and culturally significant lineage that dates back to 1637 in American history. She was a graduate of George Washington High School and of San Francisco State University where she earned a B.A. in Sociology. Beverly was a devoted wife, mother and homemaker. She was talented in sewing, crocheting, and knitting. She was also an avid reader, frequented the S.F. museums, and especially enjoyed socializing with her lifelong friends and relatives. Beverly had lovely character and was naturally well mannered, kind, compassionate, and ethical. Exceptionally stable, reliable, and consistent, she was the anchor for her family and the foundation of their well-being. Her family is grateful for her presence in their lives; she was their best friend. Loved tremendously, Beverly will always be in their hearts and forever missed.
