Beth BICKFORD Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Legacy Funeral Home on Jan. 17, 2026.
Beth Annette Bickford, 70, passed away January 16, 2026, at St. Mary's Hospital, surrounded

by her family.

Beth was born May 6, 1955, in Cedar Rapids, IA. She spent the majority of her adult life

living in California. Beth followed several career paths throughout her adulthood. Of all of

them, she felt the most fulfilling was the time she spent as a teacher. However, her

greatest accomplishment was the sons that she raised. In 2016, Beth and family moved to

Eckert, Colorado, to be closer to her brother Gene. Beth spent her remaining years there

with family and friends.

Beth was preceded in death by her parents, Eugene and Rosa Lee, and by her younger

Brother Kent.

Beth is survived by her older brother, Gene, and her sons, Joshua and Thorin. She is also

survived by 5 grandchildren and step-grandchildren (Lucas, Riley, Stormy, Anna, and

Dakota) and 2 great-granddaughters.

At this time, there will be no formal services. In lieu of condolences and flowers, please

Just rejoice in the memory of her loving spirit.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
