Not sure what to say?

One of the nicest and smartest people I ever met. The world will sorely miss her.

To Beth's family. People that Beth knew very little personally were touched by how smart and kind she was. We are so sad over her not being on this earth any longer. Jack knew her along time ago when they were on the same softball team. I knew her because of bridge. She was the best.

I was so sorry to learn of her passing. I knew her from Grace Episcopal Day School where our daughters were friends. And I quickly became her friend - she was a sweet, supportive friend to all. I wish I had known about the service but I want to send sympathy and thoughts and prayers to her daughter Julie and her family and friends.

My condolences to Judge Palmer's family. May Judge Palmer Rest In Peace!

Praying for strength and comfort for Beth's husband, daughter and the rest of her family. I enjoyed my time with Beth and the rest of her family at the wedding of Matt and Nina in March. A beautiful lady inside and out.

Beth with co-workers

My deepest condolences. Beth will be missed.

We were so saddened to hear this news. I hired Beth directly out of law school to work in my private practice general law practice. She worked with me for seven years as an associate and a partner. Her concentration was in Bunkruptcy Law. After her years in practice with me she went on to a stellar career as an Administrative Law Judge with the Federal Government.

I will always remember her stating to me early on that she thought that I was a great bridge player. It only took her...

Beth you were one of my best friends as we grew up together. I was so saddened when I heard of this news about you. I will always remember you and your family all my life. Prayers are with you and your family

May you Rest in Peace, Beth. You will be fondly missed.
