Beverly A. Frank, 86, passed away peacefully in Earlton, NY. She was surrounded by her friends that were more like family because they were her caregivers and have been by her side since the passing of her husband Michael in 2009.

She was born in Staten Island to Herman and Catherine Lendzian. She had a career in the banking industry and fondly spoke of her days working in Chase Manhattan Bank. She was a woman of strong faith and loved feeding God's creatures.

She loved spending time with her family and friends and shared many stories of those great times and enjoyed a beer or two. A loving wife, sister, aunt, friend and neighbor.

Beverly is survived by nieces Janice (Aurel), Judy (Ambrose) and Debbie (Tony); nephews Stanley (Laurie) and John (Claire); and her extended families: her, buddy and caregiver Andrew and Amelia Scarlata and family and close neighbors Szandyba and Radler families who she appreciated for checking in on her.

She was predeceased by her parents, husband Micheal and siblings Ruth, Gladys, James, William and their spouses, as well as her nephew Thomas Ford, and Randolph.

She will be missed and remembered for her caring nature as she “adopted” cats she took in and sense of humor and love for the game shows. The Scarlata Family would like to especially thank Dr. Emily Warburton, CMH team, and The Community Hospice - Columbia & Greene Counties, for their special care.

She would often start her conversation with, “Hi, nice to see you, nice to see you again, how are you doing today?” When you asked how she was, she would say, “I’m doing all right” ― not usually with a complaint. She would usually end her conversations with, “You take care, thanks again for helping me, be careful, you have a good day,” and to those close to her, “Love you dearly,” with throwing a kiss.

Beverly was that kind of person that liked just the simple things in life and would make you feel welcome the minute you walked in the house.

Relatives and friends are invited to visit with the family on Friday May 15 from 10 a.m. to noon at the W.C. Brady Funeral Home, 97 Mansion Street, Coxsackie, NY.
