Beth was born in Wauseon, Ohio on March 4, 1957, the daughter of Clyde H. and Irene L. (Thourot) Savage. Beth married Bill Mellott in 1991 and they enjoyed 32 years together. Although Beth's favorite pastime was spending time with Bill, she had many hobbies throughout her li lifetime. In her high school years she was the mascot for the Wauseon Indians sports. Beth enjoyed the many friends she made as she participated in softball, bowling, golfing and playing cards.

She was preceded in death by her parents and sister, Cheryl Savage-Head.
Baking was Beth's love language and she supplied the whole family with holiday treats, often delivering pies to their homes. Her beloved nieces and nephews cherished the many crafts and homemade gifts from their Aunt Beth.
When Beth and Bill lived at Lake Seneca she enjoyed lake activities and being around the water. After retirement, Beth and Bill spent their winters in Leesburg, FL where she volunteered for many committees and helped elderly neighbors. Beth will always be remembered for her sharp wit and great sense of humor.

Aunt Beth made everyone feel loved and special. While growing up we looked forward to trips to the country dip and fun craft nights. She would plan special days at the lake for us (her nieces) and our children. Upon arrival she would have a special treat ready for everyone and it would even be personalized (your favorite in the shape of the letter of your first name) She was always thinking about others and left herself for last. She never missed an opportunity to stop and see us when we would travel back from Texas. We miss her so much already. Love and prayers to all who loved her.
