Beth Alley Wise

how i wish i had been more diligent in reconnecting with Beth when i moved back to Florida 6 years ago. She truly made a difference in my life as a teenager, with her kindness and her love of music. What an extraordinary life she led. May her memory be the blessing to her family and friends that her presence in my life was to me. All condolences to those she loved and was deservedly loved by.

My breath has been taken away by the loss of Beth. I truly loved her. She was my sister in law for a short period of time. I have to many special stories to tell about Beth, but I will give you one of my favorites.

I had not seen Beth in several years, but as strange as it was, we were both in the LA airport flying back to Orlando. I did not even know she was in line behind me to board the plane. As fate would have it, she ended up sitting right next to me. We talked for hours. Everything from A-Z. We shared so many memories, especially about her father who I loved so dearly as well, and still and holds a special place in my heart.

Beth may be gone, but she certainly will not be forgotten.

To all of the Alley family please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. You are all very special to me

There are no words to express how sorry we were to hear about Beth. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of her family and friends who loved her so much.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Beth was an amazing person, her kindness was admirable. I learned so much from her, will deeply miss her. Hope the memories of her love brings peace and comfort during this difficult time to all friends and family.
Forever grateful for her guidance.

Prayers of peace and healing for Beth and all who love her. May God´s perpetual light shine upon her.

Beth, was the kindest person ever and wanted to help everyone if she could. Believe me, She helped a lot in her 68 years of life.

"We grieve because we love her and what she stood for. How lucky we are to have experienced that kind of love." You are with your sweet Crockett now. You are loved and will be missed Beth Wise!! Hugs and prayers to Joe, KT and all the family.

My condolences to Joe and family. I will pray for healing for all. I cannot imagine the depth of your pain and sorrow. My prayers are with you.

Beth was always a shining star at our Kiwanis Club of South Orlando. When she walked in the clubhouse it was as if a star was born. She will certainly be missed by all that knew this kind, generous and giving woman. May God rest her soul and give peace to her family and friends.

Beth was a kind, giving person. She had a way of making you comfortable in her presence. She gave to many in so many ways. Wishing my hugs and condolences to all the Alleys and Joe.

The love and joy Beth shared with so many has made an everlasting impact. I am sending my love to Joe and Beth´ entire family. She and Crockett are reunited in love and peace. Her light will continue to shine brightly.

I met Beth in 1993 when she was writing the newsletter for Hospice of Central Florida. We became friends. When I think of Beth I see a beautiful smiling face, i hear a voice of assurance and sense the kindness that was always a part of her. Beth was someone without duplicity and full of God's overflowing Spirit. I don't think she ever met a stranger or turned away someone in need. This world has suffered a great loss, but heaven has gained a loving and shining soul.

I love the Alley family and am so sorry for your loss. My heart and prayers go out for all of you-

I am so sorry for your loss. May the love you have for Beth give you peace and comfort.

So very sorry to hear of Beth´s passing, she was such a beautiful soul. She will always be remembered with love from our family. She is reunited with Crockett in Heaven and I know she is at peace. Love and prayers to you all.

Joe I´m so sorry to hear about Beth she was a beautiful and kind lady. I enjoyed visiting with her when you were still in One Shot. I know you´ve been through so much and I´m praying for you and your family.

My deepest condolences for all of you. My thoughts, prayers, heart, tears, and love are with you all. What a wonderful legacy Beth has!

Sorry to hear this Joe. My condolences and prayers for you.

We are extremely heartbroken to learn of the passing of your beloved Beth. She was such a wonderful, caring person and accomplished so much and helped so many in her much too short life. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the family, but especially Joe.

Wishing you much love during your time of grief; Beth was a truly wonderful person

I'm so very sorry to know that Beth passed away. I met her through AFSP and enjoyed each conversation we had. She is surely reunited with Crockett and making up for some lost time.

Thanks for the many happy and fun times that were shared. Beth was a valued member of our family and will be sorely missed.

I went to high school with Beth and was in occasional contact with her throughout the years. I got to see her again at our 50th high school reunion. I cherished those moments then and especially so now. My deepest condolences to her family as they attempt to find some comfort through their own memories and those of others who were touched in such profound ways by Beth. Her heart was so big.

Beth was a loving, caring, generous woman. She will be missed by all who knew her. She is now reunited with her beloved Crockett. Rest in peace my friend.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Beth´s heartlight shined through her welcoming smile and all-embracing hugs! I can easily bring to mind this memory of my yearly experience connecting with her when participating in the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) Walk at Baldwin Park. Sending comforting thoughts of loving- kindness to her family and friends.

I met Beth through our kids at Pershing Elementary and was always amazed by her dynamic personality and generous spirit. She always had the children´s best interests at heart and had such a large capacity to give of herself. I can think back to so many fun times during the craziness of volunteering at the various schools our kids attended. Beth was always ready to laugh, cry, comfort-whatever was needed. She will never know how much our epic Friday morning walks healed my soul as she herself was mourning a tragic loss in her life. I´m eternally grateful that I knew her.

I didn't know her well, but have been good friends with her sisters, Lynn and Meg. I'm heartbroken for your family.

I am so devastated & shocked to learn of Beth´s passing & had no idea she had been ill. Beth & I were lifelong friends having initially met when we worked together @ Disney World in the early `70´s. We immediately became fast friends and remained in touch forever. I still have fond memories & photos of our Disney days together when we ran the camera shop in Fantasyland. I still have the "Eyes & Ears" cast member newsletter featuring Beth when she was a Walt Disney World Ambassador runner up. She was loved & admired by all who knew her! Later, Beth & I traveled to Europe together going to Germany, Austria, Italy & Switzerland in 1976. I still have our photos from that fabulous trip. In the 80´s our paths crossed again when we bumped into each other @ Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc. where we were both starting new jobs w/HBJ! We both got married in 1985 & both ended up pregnant a few years later at the same time too. My daughter was born just a few months after Crockett was born, Beth & Joe´s son. Jenna & Crockett both attended Pershing Elementary & were in the same kindergarten class. Beth & I enjoyed volunteering together, planning class parties & being devoted mothers. We enjoyed going to Crockett´s birthday parties every year & swimming in their beautiful pool. Beth always knew how to entertain & make everything so perfect! We enjoyed watching Crockett grow up with so many interests. I also used to visit Beth when she lived in Mt. Dora for awhile before motherhood. Last time I saw her was probably 2016; we met for lunch @ Cheesecake Factory in Winter Park & spent 3 hours talking & catching up on life! Much of our conversation centered around Crockett & the tragic loss she & Joe endured. I had moved to NH 1997-2015, but we immediately reconnected when I got back in town. We remained in touch when we lived in NH too.

I´m so sad to know I won´t see her anymore in this life, but I´m comforted to know she can hold her precious son in her arms once again. Family meant everything to Beth. She always talked so highly of her brothers & sisters, and I know Joe was her world & her strength. My deepest condolences to Joe & all the family on the passing of this wonderful, remarkable lady. To me, Beth could accomplish anything & everything. I admired her from the time I first met her as a teenager when we were so young & my admiration has held strong throughout life. She will be greatly missed, but what wonderful memories she leaves behind with her remarkable legacy & gifts. Love never dies.

She was a very sweet special person. She was loved by many. She sang at our wedding in 1980.

I met Beth and Joe under grieving moments and always felt uplifted by our conversations. She is now with Crockett in God´s loving embrace. My love and prayers are with your entire family Joe.

Beth generously shared her love and joy with so many. She will be missed greatly, and will remain in the hearts of those she touched. I will always be grateful for her friendship and beautiful spirit. My deepest condolences to her family.
