She was a graduate of Newton High school and attended Wichita State University.

Beth was a loving and amazing mother to three handsome young men. She enjoyed making crafts. She painted colorful pictures and would often post them on Facebook. She regularly posited positive uplifting messages to encourage others, bring joy and try and inspire others in a positive way.

She was very good at seeing the good in others and encouraged others to improve their lives.

She enjoyed painting rocks and pillows some with flowers or designs: some with positive sayings on them like hope, peace, love and serenity and always colorful! These little treasures she enjoyed giving to her family and friends so they could enjoy them. It truly gave her joy to see them smile at something she had created and now many have these treasures to remember her by.

She loved all types of music and especially 60-70s rock & roll, old and new country. A few favorites were The Eagles and Cher.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Caring Hands Humane Society in Newton, KS and may be sent in care of Petersen Funeral Home. There will be a ceremony to honor her life in the coming months with the date being determined at a later date.
