MARSHALL - Beverly Ann Schwartz, age 77, of Marshall, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, March 25, 2026, at her home in Marshall, Wis. She was born on February 20, 1949, in Boscobel, Wis., the daughter of Floyd and Betty (Thompson) Dowling.

Beverly graduated from Boscobel High School in 1967. She dedicated many years to the U.S. Postal Service, where she served in a variety of roles throughout her career before retiring in 2010.

Beverly found joy in the comforts of home, while also treasuring the memories she created on her road trips with her grandchildren and close friends. She traveled yearly to Florida with her dear friend, Bonnie, which began in 1998. She enjoyed rock and roll music, especially “The King," Elvis Presley, among other artists.

She loved her family deeply and was especially proud of her grandchildren. In their early years, she helped care for them-watching them, assisting with homework, driving them to activities and attending dance recitals. In recent years, they returned the favor by taking Grandma Bev on their own adventures, whether it was a quick trip to Woodman’s or a visit to a friend’s gathering. It was their special time with Grandma Bev.

Beverly is survived by her sons, James (Jessica) Schwartz and Thomas "Tom" Schwartz; grandchildren, Daniel, Steven, Jacob "Leo”, Hannah and Alyssa; great-granddaughter, Aurbee; brother, Dave (Barb); and sister-in-law, Nancy. She was preceded in death by her parents, Floyd and Betty Dowling; and brothers, Bob and Kenny.

A memorial service will be held at GUNDERSON EAST FUNERAL AND CREMATION CARE, 5203 Monona Drive, Madison, at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, April 10, 2026, with Pastor Todd McVey presiding. A luncheon will follow the service at BLACK BEAR INN, 320 W Cottage Grove Road, Cottage Grove, from 12:30 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. Visitation will be held at the funeral home from 10 a.m. until the time of the service on Friday.
