My deepest condolences to Charlie and all of Beth's family. Beth and I became good friends during our law school years. She was always full of life and ready for a good laugh, as well offering kindness and friendship to so many. Looking back at her many posts over the years that she generously shared, I am reminded of how full her life was. May the memories of you share of this precious life comfort you in this time of loss.

My best thoughts to the Phillips family, neighbors for many years and friends for nearly 50.

"Beth's legacy is one of profound kindness, a reminder of how one person's empathy can create a butterfly effect of good in the world." "Nothing is ever wholly lost That which is excellence remains forever part of the universe" Love you Beth

Beth and I became friends the very first day we met in Cannes, France in 1989, and from that moment on, she has been such a beautiful part of my life. We shared a room in school, instantly bonded over our love for France and travel, and began collecting memories that I will treasure forever.

One unforgettable moment was when her parents...

We are so saddened to hear of your loss. We are here John and family for you if you need anything. With love and prayers, John and Diane Deadwyler

Beth was for a few years a volunteer on the Heartland Labor Forum, the weekly radio show on KKFI. She brought us her legal knowledge and passion for people whose rights had been violated. She was a good friend and supporter during that period in her life.

So very sad to lose a friend, but memories of her beautiful smile will help. Beth and I were in law school together, and though we didn´t see each other or talk frequently, when we did it was always like "the old days". My heart goes out to Charlie and all Beth´s other family. Especially, special thoughts to her nieces and nephew as I know how much she loved you all.

I am shocked and saddened to learn of Beth´s death. The Phillips were neighbors from 1977 to 1998. We shared some good times with John and Sue. My son and Jonathan were buddies. I was not aware of Bern´s ministry and her many accomplishments. Our prayers to John and Sue. You must be so very proud of your daughter.
