Beverly "Bev" Frances (Webb) Lindsey of Simi Valley died on Sunday, March 14, 2021 at the age of 81. Bev was born in Dallas, Texas on February 27, 1940 to visual artists Frances (Trippet) Webb and Frank Sexton Webb of Dallas. The family moved to Burbank, California in the early 1950s and her father worked as an illustrator for several advertising firms, as well as the Los Angeles Times. Bev graduated from Burbank High School in 1957, where she met and fell in love with Billy "Bill" Alvis Lindsey. They were married in 1958, and embarked on a 63-year marriage as parents of 4 and grandparents of 13.
Bev was an accomplished artist of crafts, miniatures, and fiber arts. Under the auspices of her small business, "Bev's Miniatures," she created and sold original miniature works of art for over 20 years on the national trade show circuit in addition to her work in quilting and crochet. Bev loved to travel with her husband Bill, and had an abiding love for animals, especially cats and California desert tortoises. An avid life-long reader, especially of science and speculative fiction, Bev passed her reading habit on to her children and grandchildren.
Beverly is survived by her husband Bill of Simi Valley, sister Mary Kay (Webb) Osborn of Coloma (Monte Osborn), daughter Robin Lindsey (Tom Stough) of Thousand Oaks, daughter Brook Calderon (Art Calderon) of Bakersfield, son Mark Lindsey (Beth Lindsey) of Austin, Texas, son Joshua Lindsey (Keri McIntyre) of Modesto, and 13 grandchildren.
