Our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother Beverly Copley, 70 years of age, went to her final resting place on August 9, 2021. She is preceded by her sons, Sean Snyder and Steve Snyder, and her mother and father Eileen and Jack Au. She is survived by her doting husband of 36 years, Gene Copley, loving children Scott Snyder, Brian Snyder (Mindi Snyder), Chari McDonald (Jarrod McDonald), Mary McIver (Al McIver), Nick Snyder, Casey Copley (Diane Copley), Senior Master Srgt. Christopher Copley (Barbaralee Copley), and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. Proud of her Irish heritage, Bev was the eldest of three children, her surviving brothers are John Au and David Au.
She was a retired social worker, and a member of Pickerington Church of Christ. As a foster parent Bev opened her heart and home to many children through the years. She made sure they knew everyone deserved love. She enjoyed family trips to the beach, hosting holiday dinners, and repeating stories like they happened yesterday. Bev enjoyed the company of her cousins, lunch dates with her children, but she mostly loved her daughters/granddaughters shopping sprees.
