Beverly Capurso Obituary

Visit the New Comer Cremations & Funerals - Westside Location website to view the full obituary.

Beverly Jane (Friga) Capurso, lovingly known as Nana, passed away on January 28, 2026, after a vibrant and fulfilling 92 years of life.

She is survived by her husband, Lonnie Franklin; daughters Deborah and Carol (Rob); seven grandchildren; twelve great-grandchildren; three great-great-grandchildren; brother, Mark (Cindy) Friga; and her dearest friend, Carol Pierce. 

To truly capture who Beverly was would take far more words than what a single piece of paper could hold. She wasn’t just a person, she was a story, a legend. As grand as the tallest mountain and as fiery as the sun. She was grace, beauty, and warmth. While she loved her trinkets and treasures dearly, there was nothing more valuable to her than her loved ones. To her, family was gold - and she, the rarest gem of all.

In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to the American Liver Foundation - Bili The Brave in honor of her great granddaughter, Autumn Jane.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
