Beverly A. Crennan, 59, of Whiting left this world peacefully with Jesus Tuesday, July 21, 2026, from Community Medical Center, Toms River, while surrounded by family. Beverly worked in various roles throughout her life, from a cashier at K-Mart through being a small business owner with her husband Tommy, co-owning Keys on Wheels Locksmithing. The roles she took most seriously and cherished were those of being a loving mother to her two children and a dedicated, faithful wife to her husband. She enjoyed traveling and seeing new places when she could, spending time at the beach, making memories with family, woodworking, gardening, baking cookies during Christmastime with her children, reading, and both watching and feeding the local wildlife that frequented the woods and property of her home in Whiting.

Born in South Amboy, Beverly grew up with her parents and 4 older siblings in Hazlet. After marrying her husband and having her children, she moved to Jackson in the early nineties before eventually moving to Whiting in 2018, where she spent the rest of her life. Beverly was a parishioner of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton R.C. Church, Whiting and was a life member of the Jackson, NJ VFW Post # 4703 Auxiliary.

Beverly was predeceased by her parents, Robert and Eileen Raba, and her brothers Robert Raba, Jr., and James Raba, and her father-in-law, Thomas A. Crennan. Beverly is survived by her husband Thomas J. Crennan, Sr., of 39 years, her son Thomas J. Crennan, Jr., of Franklinville, her daughter Heather Crennan of Rosedale, MD, her sisters Linda Malley of Venus, TX, and Diane Hoffman of Medford, OR., 2 grandchildren, Zachary and Colton Sica, several nieces and nephews, and her mother-in-law Diana Crennan of Virginia Beach, VA.
