Beverly 'Bev' Ann
Young, 65
On April 24th, 2023, Beverly "Bev" Ann Young of Georgetown, Delaware passed away peacefully due to a sudden illness at the age of 65 at Bayhealth Hospital in Milford, surrounded by her loved ones.
Bev was born on September 9th, 1957 in Milford, Delaware to James P. Messick and Beatrice "Jane" Glasco. She was a graduate of Milford High School. As a life-long Sussex County native, she was widely known, loved, and respected by her community. She was a proud mother to her beloved daughter, Jenny. She was a hard worker and always provided her family with love and support. Bev worked alongside her father at Ramesh C Batta Associates. She was also a well-known waitress at Pizza Palace in Georgetown for over 30 years.
Bev enjoyed the past over 25 years of her life with the love of her life, John Grigoraskos.
Bev's greatest value in life was family and often referred to herself as the "matriarch". She loved being a mother, grandmother and an aunt. Bev was well known for supporting her grandchildren and niece in Georgetown Little League, Pop Warner, Girls on the Run and all of their activities in the Indian River and Sussex Tech School District. Bev always looked forward to the summer time, so she could go on vacations to Lancaster and Ocean City with her family, and make as many beach trips as she could. She also enjoyed baking and making crafts for her family.
Bev was preceded in death by both of her beloved parents, her mother, Beatrice "Jane" Glasco, and her father, James "Jim" Messick; her siblings, Steve Messick, and Dorothy "Karen" Appel.
She is survived by the love of her life, John Grigoraskos; step-mother, Susanne Messick; step-sister, Michele Warren; her daughter, Jennifer "Jenny" Warrington and her husband Fred Warrington; her grandchildren, Brie Hagen and her boyfriend Allen Cane, Cohen Hagen and his girlfriend Katharine "Katie" Whitelock, Madison Harmon, and Devon Warrington; her great-grandchildren, Aria Warrington and Ryder Warrington; her nieces, Sherri Appel, and her son Luke Johnston, and Lori Gooding, her husband Chad Gooding and her daughter Meela Gooding; her brother in law, Dick Appel; and her best friend, Darlene Stayton and her husband Kevin Stayton.
