Beth Naylor, age 59, of Middleton, departed her earthly life on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at Baptist Hospital, Memphis.

The daughter of the late Jim Holt and the former Patricia Price, she was born in Senatobia, MS and lived in the Pocahontas and Middleton communities of Hardeman County for 32 years.  Mrs. Naylor worked with the United States Postal Service for 20 years and retired as postmaster of the Michie, TN Post Office.

A woman of strong faith, she had been a member of the Middleton First Baptist and enjoyed studying her Bible.  In her leisure time, she liked going to Florida and the beach on vacation and caring for all sorts of animals, but especially dogs and cats.  In her younger years, she enjoyed bicycle riding and tennis.  One of her most favorite pastimes was raising a garden and canning what she had grown for her family.

Beth is survived by her husband, Jim Naylor, whom she married on November 3, 1990; her son, Jeffery Miles Naylor and his wife, Michelle, of Bartlett, TN; two grandchildren, Nyla and Noah; and two brothers, Bill Anton and wife, Carol, of Hernando, MS and Jody Patrick and former wife, Jan, of Southhaven, MS.

Memorials may be sent to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
