Beth and her husband loved traveling in their camper until he died May 5, 1987.In 2007 she decided to give up her beautiful home, she was now 82 years old and tired of living alone. She sold her home and moved to Heritage, a care center for people who needed help in their later years; in 2010 she moved to Riley Court where she was able to be around friends and enjoy the comfort of a larger apartment. She found that doing her own cooking for five years was enough; she moved to the Inn on Barton Creek, she had to downsize to a smaller apartment, but the three meals a day was worth it. Beth was a sweet gentle person; her family will miss her sweet smile and lovely disposition.
She was my mom and I will always be grateful to her. Thank you Mom, Your son, Fred.
