Beverly K Ernst

Beverly K. Ernst of Susquehanna PA, formerly of Largo, FL completed her life’s journey on Sunday, July 2, 2023. A native of Binghamton, NY, she married her high school sweetheart, World War II veteran, Henry D. Ernst. She is predeceased by her mother and father, Lloyd T and Minnie Kingsbury, sister, Sylvia Dennis and her loving husband of 69 years. She is survived by her devoted daughter and son-in-law, Sandra and Ronald Kaschak; her 3 grandchildren Kristopher Kaschak (Lisa), Kerrin Walling (Jeffrey), Kolette Kaschak (Alyssa Budros); and her 4 great grandchildren, Larkin and Julian Walling and Grady and Eve Moran; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Beverly served as a Bell telephone operator by trade, yet she was a free-spirit at heart. She could often be seen riding pillion behind her husband on his Honda Goldwing motorcycle or driving her prized, green Mustang convertible. During her retirement, she enjoyed soaking up the sun on Clearwater beach with an ice cold Bud light and riding on their speedboat off of the Intercoastal waterway. She enjoyed vacationing, attending concerts and above all, the company of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Funeral services will be private. In lieu of flowers, please consider honoring Beverly with a donation to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium at https://mission.cmaquarium.org
