Beverly Conley

Beverly Earlene Conley passed away peacefully on May 22, 2026, at 9:12 p.m., after a long and courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by her loving family. Beverly was born on July 17, 1952, at Saint Rose Catholic Hospital in Great Bend, Kansas, to Earl Lewis and Florence W. (Schlerth) Marque. She was the youngest of three children and was preceded in childhood by her brother, Frank, and sister, Patricia. After the passing of her father during her teenage years, the family moved to Chanute, Kansas. It was there, growing up on the farm, that Beverly developed her lifelong love for the outdoors and ranch life. She often shared stories of learning to ride on a saddled cow before eventually moving on to her beloved horses. At the age of 16, Beverly married Wallace Earl Oshel. Together they had two children, Sherri and Clifford, and also helped raise Wallace’s younger brother, Jessie. The family later settled in South Coffeyville, Oklahoma, where Beverly planted deep roots in the family farm and community. In 1983, Beverly and Wallace divorced. In 1985, Beverly married the love of her life, Larry Eugene Conley. Together they built the Bar LC Ranch and Kennels, where they raised rough stock, quarter horses, and many exotic animals. Beverly was a hardworking woman whose dedication extended beyond the ranch. Throughout the years, she worked at Charloma Fiberglass, Acme Foundry, Coffeyville Coop and Refinery, and later served as a rural mail carrier for the Post Offices in Copan and Wann, Oklahoma. Beverly was preceded in death by her parents, Earl and Florence Marque; her sister, Patricia; both of her husbands, Wallace Oshel and Larry Conley; and her grandson, Justin Oshel. She is survived by her children: Jessie Oshel and wife Karla of Alice, Texas; Sherri Row of South Coffeyville, Oklahoma; and Clifford Oshel and wife Tylie of South Coffeyville, Oklahoma. She also leaves behind four grandchildren: Roxanne, Leslie, Shelby, and Cejay; seven great-grandchildren: Brianna, Ruben Anthony, Audrey, Ryan, Xavier, Niko, and Olivia; as well as seven great-great-grandchildren. Beverly will be remembered for her strength, hard work, deep love for her family, and the life she built through determination, resilience, and compassion. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. A graveside service will be held at Mt. Washington Cemetery in Lenapah, OK on Wednesday May 27, 2026, at 2:00PM.
