Mary Beth Roesner, 48, of Middletown, Missouri passed away at 6:09 a.m. Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at her home. Funeral services will be at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, May 28, 2025 at Middletown Baptist Church with Reverend John Foster officiating. Burial will follow at Fairmount Cemetery in Middletown. Visitation will be held from 5-7 p.m. Tuesday, May 27, 2025 at Middletown Baptist Church in Middletown. Mary Beth was born in Mexico, Missouri on September 9, 1976; she was the daughter of Donald Eugene and Phyllis Kay (Davis) Lawrence. On August 6, 1994, in Middletown, she married Michael Allen Roesner who survives. She attended Wellsville-Middletown R1 High School. For over 25 years, she worked alongside her dad at Lawrence Trailer Rebuilders. Later, she spent several years working part-time at Pet Pro Products. She also served the community as a firefighter with the Middletown Fire Department. Mary Beth loved being a grandma and it was her greatest joy as family meant everything to her. She had a passion for collecting - whether it was buttons or old oiler jars, she loved collecting and displaying her items. She dearly loved her cats and her "baby" Teddy and they were her pride and joy. She was happiest in the great outdoors - whether she was hunting, fishing, riding motorcycles, enjoying a ride in the side by side, or just soaking up nature. She attended Middletown Baptist Church. In addition to her husband Mike, survivors include her mother, Phyllis Lawrence of Middletown, Missouri; one son, Michael Lane Roesner (Abbey) of St. Peters, Missouri; three grandchildren, Rylie, Ruby, and Everett Roesner; and three sisters, Faith Lawrence (Mark) of Wentzville, Missouri, Connie Morgan (Tim) of Moberly, Missouri, and Tammy Giger (Chuck) of Middletown, Missouri. She is preceded in death by her father Donald; and one son, Zachary Donald Roesner. The family suggests memorial gifts to the Middletown Cemetery Association. They may be sent in care of Myers Funeral Home, 203 E. Bates Street, Wellsville, MO 63384.
