Ken and Family, Gene and I want to express our deepest condolences. We were both so shocked when we heard the news of Beth's passing. We were out of touch with Beth, but when we heard the news it made us remember the beautiful person she was. She had actually been in the clinic where I work a few years ago with one of her cats that was on up in age, so I got a chance to reconnect with her when she came in. She hadn't changed a bit. We will continue to think about and pray for your family as we know that void will always be there, but know that she wouldn't want you to be sad, she would want you to make her proud and carry on. GOD SPEED.

It's so hard to believe our earthly angelic Beth has become a heavenly angel. What a fitting way our Father called her home: to be doing what she loved the best with the people she loved the most. Beth was such an awesome nurse- full of understanding and love for her patients and brought such joy to her coworkers. I am so fortunate that Beth's life touched mine. Heaven has a new beautiful voice in the choir and someone who will love playing with the children. "Well done, my good and faithful servant." Beth will be missed more than words can express. Thank you to the family for sharing such a bright light in our lives with all of us..

Beth cared for our family at St. Jude as if we were her own. During our hardest of days she gave us the greatest gift a nurse can give, HOPE. We loved and appreciated Beth - she will be missed.

Beth, my heart is broken. You are gone, and everything just feels surreal. You were one of the three people I credit with teaching me how to be a nurse. I am the clinician that I am in part because of your guidance and willingness to put up with my loud mouth and sarcasm. You pushed me to be better, and you gave wise counsel when I screwed up. Your wit and warmth, your obvious love for your patients, and your willingness to say exactly what needs to be said will all be missed. What I will miss most, though, are the random texts and chats, especially when we were dealing with loss or when you and I were thinking of our boy. Thank you for being my teacher, my friend, and above all for just being you. And I am being quieter, at least for a little while.

With my deepest love and respect.

Heaven has gained an angel and while missed on earth, know that Beth impacted many lives she touched. Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. That joy is knowing that Beth is with her Savior.
