Beth A. Neudecker (nee: Wagoner), of St. Peters, MO, passed away peacefully at home in the comfort of her family on Monday, October 26, 2015, at the age of 66. She is the loving wife of Robert E. Neudecker; beloved daughter of the late Donald and Betty Wagoner; devoted mother of Jeffery (Angela) Neudecker, Stacy (Kern) McMurtrie, and Scott Neudecker; cherished grandmother of Madison Neudecker, Harrison Neudecker, Owen McMurtrie, Braden McMurtrie, and Cameron McMurtrie; dear sister of Nancy (Mark McClain) Long; dear sister-in-law of Ron (Pat) Neudecker. She is preceded in death by her brother Carl Steven Wagoner.
Upon graduation from cosmetology school, Beth began her professional career as a beautician. Once she married, her main focus shifted to the raising of her three children. In later years, Beth began a career in the retail field, then retired in 2009 from St. Charles Community College, having worked in the campus library. Her various roles brought her great pleasure due to the many friends she made along the way. Beth was also a member of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, where she volunteered in the parish.
Besides the love of her family and friends, her passion was cooking. She enjoyed taking cooking classes, but even more loved cooking and baking for others. Her ultimate legacy is the love she had for her family and the people she met in her life, whether it be co-workers or strangers she met along the way. Our desire is, in lieu of donations, to perform an act of kindness in her honor, thus continuing her legacy. Beth was dearly loved and will be missed by all who knew her.
