Beth was a great young lady and will be missed! Yes, she had a great smile! It is too bad that they don't have any cows on the candles for lighting...she loved her cows! It was our pleasure to know her and our thoughts and prayers are with you. Always remember she is always with you and in our hearts!

So sorry that the beautiful girl and smile are no longer with us. Beth and I worked in the same building here at Crane and I never saw her when she wasn't bubbly. If she felt bad you didn't know it. We had some good talks. We also enjoyed some of that wonderful cooking of hers. So many things everyone will miss but just especially, Beth herself. Know that she is looking down on all of you as you struggle to carry on without her. So glad to have known her. Phyllis

So sorry for your loss Scott, Beth was a strong, and very courageous woman. She fought a hard battle and now the battle is over and she has the final victory and the crown. Be comforted today and everyday until you see her again Scott. Sorry I couldn't be there but you are in our prayers. Much love and prayers for your family! Dixie and Nick

Dear Sonja and Warren,
We are so deeply sorry in hearing of your daughter Beth's passing. Although we never personally met her, we are grieving your loss because you exuded so much love for her each day that we were together! What a blessing she must have felt when she was with you. I'm sure it was hard for her to leave her earthly home for her heavenly salvation with the loving kindness you both showered onto her. Please keep that close always.
Love Always,
Hope & Jeff Ellington

John Wesley
The quote above describes Beth to a tee! She was the most selfless, giving, loving person I know. She will be sorely missed by so many. Words cannot express what a wonderful person she was. I find peace knowing that I will see her again in heaven. She would not want us to be sad for her as she now rests in her Saviors arms! Prayers for her family & friends.

So sad! I haven't seen Beth since we graduated in 1982 but she had crossed my mind from time to time. She was always the sweetest, kindest person to everyone. She always had such an awesome smile and a great personality to go along with that smile. She was just a fun person to be around. My heart aches for her family and friends May God be with all of you.

I was deeply saddened to hear such a wonderful & beautiful person has left us. Beth coached me in volleyball at L&M for a short time, but she was by far my favorite coach ever. She made me feel as if I were one of her own and was a great friend at the same time. She even had get togethers at her home for us. As a teenager, that was so important to me and spoke volumes of her character. I also babysat for Michael & 'Dougy' a few times. 😊 I loved Beth and this world won't be the same without her. I wish I had kept in better contact. If I weren't 4 hours away with 3 girls in school I would be there for her service in a heartbeat. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this extremely difficult time. Sending lots of hugs, prayers and love. 🙏❤️

Michael and Doug, I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I don't think I ever saw or spoke with Beth when she wasn't smiling, laughing, and full of stories about you two! It was so obvious how proud she was of you. I'll certainly be keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers. My condolences to you, Rebecca Harris
