Beverly King Obituary

Beverly Jane King passed away June 18, 2025 in Davenport, Florida. She was born on April 2, 1955 to Roy Alfred Doman and Agnes Carrie (Rathbone) Doman in Parkersburg, West Virginia. She lived in West Virginia and Pennsylvania; attended Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music; then moved to Florida with her parents in the late '70s.

In her retirement years, Beverly enjoyed traveling and making her special gift baskets for local friends and family at Christmas time. She especially enjoyed arranging Alaska vacations and cruises with family and friends. Beverly was always trying new recipes and spared no effort when making holiday dinners for family and friends. She was an avid supporter for Habitat for Humanity of Citrus County and will be remembered for her generosity to others.

Wayne and family - My condolences to you and your family on Bev's passing. I knew her before you got married while we both worked for the Clerk. I was in the finance department and we took walks around the block during our morning breaks. I often thought about her whenever I passed Cinnamon Ridge's road off US 44. In fact, I passed that entrance today and thought about Bev again. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. Wish I could be with you Saturday, but have other plans, but know I am there in heart and mind. Terry

Beverly and her father uncle Roy were at the family farm. I had a quarter horse named lady. Beverly was riding her and lady jump the creek. Beverly fell off she didn't get hurt. The amazing thing she fell under lady and the horse never moved a muscle until she got out from underneath her. She was a good horse lucky for Beverly. This from vickie Doman Jenre
