Beth Ann Hock`

Beth Ann (Warnecke) Hock, 62, of Birmingham, AL, passed away on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born on March 27, 1963, in Lima, Ohio, Beth was known for her devotion to her family, her lifelong commitment to nursing, and her joyful love of sports. Her final act of generosity was the donation of her lifesaving organs — a gift that will continue her legacy of compassion and care.

Beth is survived by her wife, Nancy Adams; her children, Bradley (Paula) Hock, grandchildren Rita and Caroline, of Denver, CO; Elizabeth Hock Truran of Dayton, OH; and Spencer Hajarian of Dayton, OH; stepdaughter, Brett Adams of Birmingham, AL; mother, Betty Kinstle; and brothers, Ron (Julie) Warnecke, Chuck (Carrie) Warnecke, and Jeff (Stephanie) Warnecke. She is lovingly remembered by many cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.

A Memorial Mass will be held on Saturday, January 31, 10:30 am, at St. Michael's Catholic Church (312 N Broad St, Kalida, OH 45853), officiated by Fr. Mark Hoying.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Donate Life or the American Heart Association.
