NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Beverly J (LaBombard) Tatro, 80, of North Adams was called into the arms of our Heavenly Father on January 28, 2017, surrounded by her loving family. 

Beverly was born July 18, 1936, in North Adams, a daughter of Bernadette (Amlaw) and Francis LaBombard Sr., and attended local schools. 

She married Bernard Tatro and together they raised five children. Beverly worked at Willowood in Williamstown for a few years before moving to Connecticut, where she worked at Bickford Nursing Home in Windsor Locks until her retirement. Beverly loved her family and always enjoyed family gatherings with all the children and grandchildren around. Christmas was her favorite time of year when everyone was welcome to come and visit and enjoy some of the special Christmas punch.

Beverly was predeceased by her parents, Bernadette and Francis LaBombard Sr., as well as her sister Barbara Gleason, all of Clarksburg; and her former husband, Bernard Tatro of Deland, Fla. 

She is survived by her sister Jeannette Brule and her brother Francis LaBombard Jr. of Clarksburg; as well as her children, Gary Tatro and his wife Barbara of Windsor Locks, Conn., Lisa Nassif and her husband David of Savoy, Karen Fachini and her husband David of Pownal, Vt., Jeffrey Tatro and his wife Kelly of North Adams and Timothy Tatro, with whom she made her home; as well her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and nieces and nephews. 

Beverly will also be missed by her dog, Mya, who always stayed by her side. 

The family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at Berkshire Medical Hospital for their kindness and support. We would also like to thank Debbie Bua for spending time with Mom and giving her weekly Communion.
