She attended Cross Keys High School before earning her Bachelor's in Biology from Georgia Tech and continuing on to earn her Bachelor's in Physical Therapy from Georgia State University.
She spent her career as a pediatric physical therapist improving the lives of every student she worked with.

Beth is survived by her loving husband Tommy, her children and their spouses, and her two "little loves", grandsons Charlie and Ellis Rodgers. She is also survived by her brother Stephen (Bonnie) Rary and sister Sally Capps.

Although we never met you we always felt we did. Tommy is such a big part of our Canadian family that we enjoyed spending time talking with him over Chinese food and hearing about his family. The kids, grandkids were always top of conversation as well as plans with Beth for the future that were unfortunately cut short. We know you had the fight and wanted to stay but God called you home for another plan . You will be missed by all my friend love the Friesen family
