Beth Corr Obituary

Beth Ann Corr, 54, of Chicago, passed away August 17, 2014 after a long battle with cancer. Beth started a long career in the medical field as an X-ray tech. She became an LPN, and then a Registered Nurse working in the Resurrection Medical Center network of hospitals and doctors as well as for Rainbow Hospice of Mount Prospect, IL. She LOVED animals, (especially cats), movies, Halloween, music, swimming, and anything fun. As soon as you met her, her laugh and silliness would change your life forever. She is survived by her beloved husband, Tim Corr; her loving brother, Tony (Kathy Jo) Camacho; her beloved sister-in-law, Mary Jo Corr; her cherished nephews, Danny, Timmy, and Chris Corr; and by many cousins and loving friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, Sam and Bette Camacho. There will be a memorial gathering, Saturday Aug. 23, 2014 from 4 until 9 pm at Severino's River Woods Funeral Chapels, 205 S. River Road (1/2 block north of Rand Road - Route 12), Des Plaines, IL 60016. Words of remembrance will begin at 7:30 pm. Please dress casual. Beth Ann loved Jimmy Buffett and Hello Kitty so please wear something tropical or something pink. Seriously! Interment will be private.
