Beth and I met working at Anthem in 2010, I believe. From the start, we found common interests and shared life and family stories. She loved and told me about her family and was interested in mine. So we began to know each other and enjoy our friendship. And then Erika, her lovely daughter, joined our work group. Yes, Erika, I said lovely. What a pleasure having a new, young coworker! From my perspective, Beth was enjoying Erika being there too. Getting to know Erika, brought me closer to Beth. I retired in 2020 but through Facebook I enjoyed continuing our frienship, mostly through Beth's posts I am more of a reader than participant. Loved seeing her Good morning posts and sharing family photos. Beth was a faith-filled person and now brightens up new home with all the angels, saints, and God. Shalom dear friend.

We met at Anthem in 2010, I believe. From the beginning, her kindness and caring showed in her behavior. Beth loved her family and showed interest in mine; very endearing. It was apparent she was a person of faith, as well. I was always confident that our conversations were well-intentioned and often just fun. And to top things off, her lovely daughter, Erika, joined our work group. Yes, Erika, LOVELY. It was nice having a young coworker who was confident and out-going. After my retirement, Facebook kept me in touch, although I read more than contribute. It was nice to have her share things and people she loved. She imprinted my heart. God knows how many more feel the same. Thank you Beth and thank you God for sharing her beautiful soul.

Mr.Gossard and family, I have never met you or Beth. My husband and I are fairly new at the Wilmington Nazarene Church. I have heard several stories that included Beth, her spirit, knowledge of scripture and willingness to serve. I am pretty sure I would have liked her. From the little that I know I believe Beth is enjoying the warmth and comfort that can only be found in the presence of our Lord, Jesus. I am happy for her. I know this is a tough time for you but I hope that I will have an opportunity to meet you and share some moments in Him while waiting to meet Beth some day. Blessings, Sharon Cassidy
