I will very much miss Dr Chaignaud. I didn't find out about this until a while ago. Just know she was one of my favorite doctors at Childrens of Alabama. Always so kind and compassionate with our babies in the NICU. I am truly saddened to hear of her passing. She is missed. Vicki Ferguson RN
I’m a former pathologist at COA and friend of Beverly. She was an angel on earth in every way possible. I loved her kind, compassionate, sweet gentle spirit. In addition, the care she provided her patients was second to none! I’m blessed our paths crossed and I miss our lunches on the patio. My prayers and my heart goes out to her family and friends as God brought His angel home.
Bev was an art teacher at Cabrini when I was initially a counselor and then Principal. She was such a fine role model....had a goal of becoming a physician....a late call to medicine. I am the med alumni director at Tulane School of Medicine and had the blessing of visiting with her in Birmingham twice over the past year. Such a gentle and kind and compassionate woman. She was so dedicated to her patients. She will be missed greatly. My deepest condolences to her family at this very difficult time. Bev and all of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Hayes
Dr.Chaignaud always greeted me with a smile and a hello, how are you? I will truly miss seeing her ray of sunshine through the halls of Children's of Al. My prayers are with you her Loved Ones.
Thank you for sharing Bev with us at COA. She was my partner, my colleague, my Surgical Sister, but mostly she was my friend. Bev, I miss you.
Please accept my most sincere sympathy for the loss of your beloved. I was one of her students at Cabrini and to this day I am grateful to her for instilling in me a love and appreciation of the arts . It’s comes as no surprise that her dreams blossomed into the field of medicine. I know that her family , students and patients have suffered a great loss . Praying for comfort and healing 🙏
Dear Ed and Elaine,
You are in our thoughts and prayers in the death of your beloved daughter. Although we never had the pleasure of meeting her, it was obvious she was respected and loved. Dr.Beverly will be missed for years to all who knew her. However, I’m sure she left many precious memories that will never die. That is God’s gift to you!
May you feel God’s comforting presence. We love you. We will see you Monday.
Lovingly, Don and Beth Core Crow
“Ms. Chaignaud” was a beautiful person inside and out. I first knew her as a talented and thoughtful art teacher when I was a student at Cabrini, then became reacquainted years later after she had further developed those artistic skills and generous spirit into a surgeon. What an inspiring, gentle lady who undoubtedly touched many people’s lives.
