Beverly Jane Kellogg

Beverly J. Kellogg, 89, a lifelong resident of Wenatchee, peacefully passed away Friday, December 4, 2009, at River West Assisted Living in Wenatchee. Beverly was born in the Deaconess Hospital to proud parents, Clyde and Hazel (Penhallegon) Kellogg. She graduated from Wenatchee High School in 1939. Then in June of 1941, she was extremely proud to be among the first graduating class of Wenatchee Junior College. Her education then continued at the University of Washington, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in June 1943. Then as the daughter of Western College of Commerce President, Clyde Kellogg, she graduated in their secretarial program in April 1946. For many years, she worked downtown as a bookkeeper for Johnson's, Inc. Later in life, she again followed in her father's footsteps by obtaining her CPA license and practicing in the Fuller Quigg building on Wenatchee Avenue. Beverly was a member of the American Association of University Women and the Delta Rho Chapter of Alpha Iota Sorority. She held many offices, including President and Treasurer for many years. Every month for many years she would go to lunch with her "lunch bunch," lifelong friends whom she truly treasured. She also served and volunteered on many local boards and organizations, as she was very proud of her Wenatchee roots. Beverly was the proud granddaughter of Wenatchee Pioneers, Sam and Jennie Penhallegon, who settled in Sunnyslope in 1904. Beverly loved animals. She had several dogs and cats that she adored. They made her so happy. One of her weekly highlights was to visit with her hairdresser and the cat. She'd get so excited when the cat would choose her lap to sit in, while getting her hair done. She would come home and talk about the cat for hours. Shari, thank you. She also enjoyed the animals at River West, especially her cat, "Sugar." Beverly enjoyed the time spent with her cousins and other family members. They spent countless hours making her laugh, reminiscing, taking drives and going to lunch. Beverly is survived by her cousins, R.C. Penhallegon of Malaga and Emma Penhallegon of Wenatchee; and numerous extended family members. No Services will be held. Arrangements by Telford's Chapel of the Valley, East Wenatchee.
