Beth, as she was known to many, grew up in Pasco and Citrus counties and was a graduate of Gulf High School in New Port Richey, FL.

Beth's passion was music. In high school she won awards at the state level. Locally she sang with the band, Beth and the Bayou Boys. She and brother Skip on the guitar sang at family weddings and special events. She was admired and loved by her many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews. The entire family will miss "Aunt Beth", a truly caring, sweet, loving person. As a mother, sister, family and friend there was none who was any greater, and mere words cannot express our loss. She was formerly employed at her family’s two businesses; the gift shop known as Suncoast Made In America and Grab N Go, the Real Convenience Store, both of Homosassa. Beth also worked for Citrus County Parks and Recreation, Hospice of Citrus County and for the last ten years with The Seagrass Resort. She would do whatever was necessary to help a co-worker and took pride in a job well done. After work her personal joy and relaxation were with her dog, Triton and Todd's dogs Blue and Prince. They made a happy family. A perfect day would be spent at the beach, she loved Anna Maria Island and especially Daytona Beach. In memory of Beth because she was an animal lover, her family requests that memorial contributions be made in her memory to Citrus County Animal Shelter. In addition to monetary donations, dog food, towels and blankets are also lovingly appropriate. A memorial service will be held at Wilder Funeral Home, Homosassa, FL on Mon., Nov. 1, 2021 at 2:00 P.M. A future celebration of her very special life will take place and be announced for a later date. www.wilderfuneral.com
