Obituary for Beverly Eileen Goldstein

Beverly Eileen Goldstein (nee Schweitzer), of Reisterstown, Maryland, passed away on Monday, April 19th, 2021 at the age of 82. She is survived by her beloved daughters, Paula (Jeffrey) Weissberg and Barbara Goldstein Klau; and grandchildren, Julia Levine, Justin Levine, Hailey Klau, and Maya Weissberg. She was predeceased by her husband, Howard Goldstein; and parents, Minna and Philip Schweitzer.

Beverly had many hobbies and interests, including politics, her grandchildren, eating out with her friends (especially at the Reisterstown Diner), poodles, going to the senior center, playing mah jongg, finding a great deal, shopping, traveling, New York bus trips, Atlantic City bus trips, Broadway shows, and getting her hair and nails done weekly. Anyone that knew Beverly would say that she was a true workaholic, die hard Republican and loved her Judaism. Her career consisted of working for large companies like Duracell and Gillette to eventually starting her own Pet Supply Business, which she truly loved the most! She also worked for Weight Watchers for over 20 years in a part time capacity. During all this working, she still managed to attend two presidential inaugurations, and held a position on the Republican National Central Committee and was a judge for the Orphan's Court for Governor Hogan. In addition to the RNC, she also devoted time to the Reisterstown Improvement Committee, Baltimore Hebrew Sisterhood, and Reisterstown Senior Center.

Beverly would want to be remembered for being a strong, independent and friendly woman who was able to get through life while being an only child who suffered a great loss at a young age. Both of her parents died before she got married at the age of 25, so in order to live with her grief she buried herself in work. Even Though she was always "working", Beverly made sure that she found time for the joys in life, like enjoying good food (she especially loved eating meat, but it had to be rare or she would not touch it!), spending time with her dear friends, and of course her loving family.

Despite all the time she invested in her other pursuits, the most important thing to Beverly was her family - especially her grandchildren! She was always buying them toys and would take them to the dollar store non-stop. Beverly would go out of her way for anything that her grandchildren ever wanted, even if it meant driving to another state or flying to get it.
