Not sure what to say?

Dear Walter and family
It’s with great sadness that I have learned of Beth’s passing.
She was the light in everyone’s life that was fortunate enough to know her..
May the wonderful memories you have of her help to sustain you at this devastating time.
Fondly
Ina

Beth found the goodness in everyone she touched. Her becoming demeaner, her tenderness, her sweet smile, her kindness towards everyone she touched and cared for will be greatly missed. May she forever rest in peace. Walter, my deepest sympathies to you and all your family.

Walter, I was so sorry to hear of Beth’s passing. I have so many fond memories of Beth. Most of them are on the dance floor at family parties. She was either dancing with us (the cousins) or with you. Typically, Valerie wasn’t far away from her either. I will always remember her bright smile, laughter and her beautiful personality. Much love

When I was about seven years old, I saw my "Aunt" Beth drinking a beer, and I was shocked...up until that moment, I'd never seen a woman drinking a beer (the women in my family were partial to vodka tonics). Aunt Beth was a rebel. With her bright red glasses and perfectly coiffed blonde hair, she commanded every room she stepped into.

My condolences Beth was a beautiful person so sorry for your loss Walter and family ❤

I am heartbroken over the passing of the “Sixth McAllister Sister”.

As a little girl, I saw her as my sister Midge’s really cool friend. As I grew up I recognized her as an incredibly funny, generous, kind-hearted soul who was loved by everyone in our family. She will be missed by all. Kevin and I send our deepest condolences and love to Walter and...

Condolences and love to Walter and all the Horan siblings. What a pleasure for me, and my sisters, to have Beth as our honorary "sister" all these many years. She and my sister Midge were best friends who walked to school at OLPH every day, from Kindergarten through High School. They always had each other's back!
Whenever she came across the street to call for Midge, she always stopped in to visit our grandmother, who lived on the first floor of our house. Nanny loved her, and so...

Beth has been a much loved member of the McAllister family through five generations. She lived her life with style, humor and generosity. My love and condolences go out to Walter, Bill, Janie, Bryan and Kerry.
