Beth was born on February 7, 1944 in Tuscan, Arizona to Lawrence and Geraldine Leopold. She was the first of seven children, six girls and one boy.
In 1961, Beth married Noah R. Crabill in Albuquerque, New Mexico. They lived in England for two years and then in California, and raised two children, Debra Leigh and David Lawrence. Beth, who liked sunshine and warmth, later lived in Florida for seven years before settling in Las Vegas in 2009. She worked as a bookkeeper and software trainer.
A life long ice skater, Beth skated for the Ice Capades in her teens and most recently was active in the Las Vegas figure skating club. Beth loved plants and enjoyed creating elaborate gardens in her yard. She was always on the lookout for handy tips and new uses for common items. For example, she mixed her own bug spray of lavender oil and Avon Skin So Soft.
Beth was preceded in death by her grandson, Todd Michael her sisters, Janice Kay and Diana Sue; and her parents. She is survived by her children, Debra Leigh (California) and David Lawrence and wife Kimberly Tyler (Rhode Island); 7 grandchildren; 5 great grandchildren; siblings, Carol Lynn (New Mexico), Frances Leslie (Texas), Eva Marie (Colorado), and Robert Lawrence (New Mexico); and their spouses. 6 nieces and nephews and 7 great nieces and nephews also survive her.

Debby, I was so sad to read this, Beth has been on my mind for a while. Your mother and I were roommates at Applied Systems in 1998. We even had a training in Northern California and visited you at your home. My husband and I visited with Beth last September on our way home from our summer trip.
Thank you for posting this. I will send pictures later. Cheryl and Roy Lozoya

So very sad to read this. I had been trying to get a hold of Beth and was hoping to get out to see her this year. My deepest sympathies to all her friends and family.
