Beverly Ann Tayek, age 78, of Marion, Iowa passed away Thursday, September 3, 2020 at home surrounded by her loving family in Anamosa, Iowa. Funeral services were held at the St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Marion. Interment was in the Cedar Memorial Park Cemetery in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Due to the COVID-19 restrictions, social distancing and face masks were required, and a limited number of people were allowed following mandated guidelines.

Beverly Ann was born August 24, 1942 in Oelwein, Iowa to Arthur and Marguerite (Burke) Burrack. She graduated from the M-F-L High School in Monona, Iowa in 1961. She went to beauty school where she graduated in 1962. 1962 was also the year that she married Roger Tayek in Farmersburg, Iowa. Roger and Beverly started their life together in Monona on a family farm until 1970 when they moved to Marion where she started her own in-home beauty shop which lasted until her retirement in 2019.

Beverly loved to go dancing, playing cards, knitting, crocheting, baking, traveling, and spending time with her family and friends. Without fail, Beverly always had to have a new outfit for every occasion or just because - and with every new outfit, she, of course, had to have a matching pair of shoes.

Beverly is survived by her husband of 58 years, Roger Tayek of Marion; two children, Robin (David)Shrope of Marion and Rodney Tayek (Arletta Henry) of Anamosa; three grandchildren Chad (Kati) Brown of Marion, Whitney Shrope of Marion, and Samantha Tayek of Cedar Rapids; five great-grandchildren Grant, Vincent, and Lucas Brown, Hayden and Izabella Curtis, all of Marion; her siblings Rex (Marlene) Burrack of Marion, Helen Fitz of Gypsum, Colorado, Mary (Fred) Torres of Laguna Vista, Texas, and Joan Walke of Guttenberg; brother-in-law Ron (Gloria) Tayek of Farmersburg; sister-in-law Marlys (David) Kaiser of Saskatchewan, Canada; along with many nieces, nephews, cousins, clients, and friends.

Beverly was preceded in death by her parents; her mother and father-in-law, Donald and Marcella Tayek; brother-in-law Bob Walke; sisters-in-law Wanda Burrack and Maxine Johnson; and nephews Jake Tayek, and Mike Johnson.

Beverly was a dedicated wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. She will truly be missed by all who knew her.
