Obituaries

Beth and I were students and graduated together as part of the KHS Class of 1980. We actually hardly knew each other at all, but I was a friend of Maura Dowling, and she was great friends with Elizabeth. Maura always spoke so very highly of her friend, and Maura was a great judge of character. I hope that they are together again, and now their friendship will last for eternity.

Wholeheartedly, She loved, and inspired with transcending devotion. It was a blessing, to have been her son, to have been her daughter, to have been near her at all, and to have been loved by her without conditions. Her words of wisdom, her quiet grace, and unselfish ways are a path for all to follow. Beth saw the best in all she loved, she empowered by believing in those she loved, and because of that she left people transformed for the better. She transformed me. With the unfairness of this world, the nonsensical fates that we can't begin to fathom, she floated away from us. But her love will remain standing, eternally by our sides. We are better for having known Beth. We are blessed to have shared a laugh, a joke, a conversation, or even a moment with her. Such a private person, but a woman who radiated graciousness, generosity, sincerity, and the most unpretentious people I have ever known. She will be missed greatly by all who were fortunate enough to have known her. I will think of her every time I am at the beach, with my toes in the sand and the sun on my face, I will remember my beautiful Cousin Beth. I will smile and remember all of the many precious memories I have of her. In doing this, she will never really be gone from us! Love to Cousin Bob, Meg, Katie, and Jack

We send our love and our prayers to Sue and Bruce, Chris, and the entire family. Beth was strong, smart, fiercely private and I have always admired her courage in fighting a disease we shared. Our hearts are hurting for all of you , and we are praying for God's comfort and strength today and in the days ahead!
