Margaret Stureman Obituary
The middle child of William J. Nebesky and Louise Wyeth Nebesky, she was one of three children. Born on Dec. 27, 1947, in Amesbury, Mass., she was raised in Dover spending happy summers at Lake Attitash in Amesbury. After graduating from Dover High School in 1965, she attended Plymouth State University before transferring to the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Fla., graduating in 1969. After college she was employed with the airlines and traveled extensively. She married Richard Stureman, a wonderful man and best friend in 1973 and raised two beautiful children in Florida. She worked as a social worker but spent most of her next 20 years while bringing up her family doing private duty in the home. In 2003, she returned to New Hampshire to take care of her mother who passed away in the home in 2007. She has taken care of her father at home from that time until the time of her illness.
At her request, no public service is planned.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I remember Beth years ago when we were kids in the neighborhood but haven't had contact since then. It is so nice to read how she had a wonderful family and was such a caring person.
