Beloved wife and mother. Beth was born in St. Charles and attended St. Charles Public Schools, later earning a BA in Music from Lindenwood College. She married her Life Mate George and in the fall of that year they both matriculated to Indiana University to earn master’s degrees (hers was in Music theory).
Beth taught music in Alton for two years and Orchard Farm for five. Beginning in 1970 she began a 14-year term at St. John UCC as Director of Music and then at St. Charles Presbyterian as Choir Director and Organist for 15 years.
Beth loved to travel with her mother, daughter and spouse. Early in her marriage she became enamored of Maine; she spent many long summer breaks there, managing additional trips to Europe and Hawaii when possible.
