To the L'Etoile Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I am deeply saddened by this news. I only knew Beth for a short time as I worked with her at Monadnock Speedway but she was a ray of sunshine that always had a smile on her face every time I worked with her. I do know that she was very proud of her husband always cheering him on and always had some great stories to tell about her children. She will be missed. My deepest sympathy is sent to your family.
