Tragic Loss in Lisbon, N.Y.: Pregnant Amish Woman Beverly Glick Dies in Fatal Farm Accident

TOWN OF LISBON, N.Y. — The St. Lawrence County community is reeling after a heartbreaking tragedy that claimed the life of 33-year-old Beverly Glick, an Amish woman and devoted mother, who died in a fatal farm accident last week. The incident, which occurred at her family’s home on 4214 State Highway 68 in Lisbon, also claimed the life of her unborn child, leaving family, friends, and neighbors in profound grief.

According to authorities, emergency personnel were called to the scene after reports of a serious farming accident involving machinery. Despite swift efforts by first responders and the quick arrival of emergency medical teams, Beverly Glick was tragically pronounced dead at the scene. She was seven months pregnant at the time, making the loss even more devastating for the tight-knit Amish and broader St. Lawrence County communities.

The St. Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed that the incident is being treated as a tragic accident, and no foul play is suspected. Investigators are working to piece together the exact sequence of events, but early reports suggest that the accident occurred while Beverly was performing routine farm duties. The details surrounding the equipment involved have not been publicly disclosed out of respect for the family’s privacy.

News of Beverly’s passing has sent shockwaves throughout the Lisbon area, where she and her family were known for their hard work, faith, and generosity. Friends and neighbors describe Beverly as a kind, gentle, and deeply spiritual woman who loved her family, her community, and her way of life. “She was always smiling, always willing to help others,” one neighbor said. “Her heart was full of kindness and grace. This is an unimaginable loss.”

Members of the Amish community, known for their close bonds and collective strength, have come together to support Beverly’s husband and surviving children during this time of profound sorrow. Meals, assistance, and words of comfort have poured in from both Amish and non-Amish residents alike, reflecting the deep respect Beverly earned throughout her life.

Local leaders have also expressed their condolences, calling the tragedy “a reminder of both the beauty and the danger of rural life.” Farming remains central to the community’s identity, but accidents like this serve as stark reminders of the risks that come with agricultural work.

Funeral services for Beverly Glick and her unborn child were held within the Amish community in keeping with their customs and traditions. Hundreds of family members, friends, and community members gathered in quiet mourning, celebrating her life of faith, love, and devotion while offering prayers for healing and peace.

As Lisbon and the greater St. Lawrence County area grieve, many have reflected on the lasting legacy Beverly leaves behind — a legacy defined by her unwavering faith, her compassion for others, and the deep love she had for her family. Though her life was tragically cut short, her memory will continue to inspire all who knew her.

The community remains united in support of the Glick family, holding them close in prayer as they navigate a loss that words can scarcely describe.
