Beatrice was born in Lowell, MA on April 27, 1925, the daughter of the late Thomas and Mary (Camarcho) Rebal. She lived in Woburn for 83 years before moving to Raymond, NH. She attended Woburn High School and was a parishioner of St. Anthony Church.

Beatrice was a homemaker and mother of 8 children who entered the workforce once her children were grown. She sewed clothes for Vogue Doll Company for several years and then began working in the Winchester Hospital coffee shop where she stayed for 15 years.
