Summary: Andrea Beacham Carver, 46, passed away February 14, 2025, at her home in Williston, ND. A celebration of life was held at a later date. Andrea was born March 7, 1978, to Charita "Rita" Baker Evans and Clarence Anderson (Andy) Beacham, Jr. in Washington, NC. She graduated from Washington High School in 1996. She studied at Beaufort County Community College, graduated in 1999, and proceeded to study at the University of Mount Olive where she graduated in 2003. She was finishing her last couple credits to earn her master's in business administration from Dickinson State University at the time of her death. Andrea married the love of her life, Raymond Carver, on December 16, 2011. On October 29, 2016 she had their sweet son, Anderson. She and Raymond also had numerous dogs throughout their time together, including Skully. Together, Raymond, Anderson, and Skully made her heart full. She cherished her family. To know Andrea was to love her. She had a heart of gold and was always willing to lend a hand to those in need. This helped her assist many students during her time working in higher education. She worked at East Carolina University before moving to Williston where she worked in financial aid at Williston State College. Any time she heard of a student in need, she did anything in her power to make sure a student could attend college without having financial hardships. Andrea was an East Coast girl at heart. She had a love for the beach and warm weather, classical rock and 70s music, and thoroughly enjoyed listening to Alice in Chains. She was known to use her southern accent and charm on people and always had a smile on her face. The saddest day in her life was when she lost her daddy, in May of 2024. Andrea had an admiration for her daddy that ran deep. Andrea is survived by her husband, Raymond; son, Anderson, and fur-baby, Skully, of Williston ND; her mom, Rita Baker Evans and stepdad, Ike Evans, of Washington, NC; her stepmom, Nell Beacham, of Washington, NC, and stepbrother, Lewis Holloman, of Concord, NC; grandfather, Charles Lindbergh Baker, Sr.; and numerous nieces and nephews and friends. She was preceded in death and lovingly reunited with her daddy, Andy Beacham, and grandmother, Merle Donohue Baker; grandfather, Clarence Beacham Sr., and grandmother, Julia Rae Gerard.
