Not sure what to say?

That couldnt have been said any better "community mom" you was always there for everyone, you'd give the shirt off your back to anyone in need and not ask for a penny in return! You will be missed dearly but your memory will forever go on !

Beth was a beautiful lady always treated me like a daughter when I visited truly a kind hearted woman. She welcomed every one in with open arms.

My last photo taken with Beth at our Keffer Girls lunch. She had so much fun that day.

Beth Ann was born one year after me and as children we were so close. Years pass and our families choose different paths but those heart strings will never go away. God keep you in the palm of His hands, dear cousin, until we meet again.

She was a great friend I loved her alot

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. I'm so sorry for your loss. I know Beth is definitely in Heaven.
