Beth Colby Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Beth Colby (Getzville, New York), born in Syracuse, New York, who passed away, on December 9, 2020. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Beth Colby to show support.
She was predeceased by: her parents, James Colten and Dorothy R. Colten. She is survived by: her brother William Colten (Bill); her nieces, Amy Colten (David Creatura) of Seattle, WA and Katherine Colten of Washington, DC.; her close friend Norma Fletcher; and her granddaughter Grace.
She was well-known among the many area schools and was many other teachers' "first request" when they needed a substitute. During the Covid pandemic, while unable to teach in the schools, she and Norma began home-schooling Grace, creating a special opportunity for all of them.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Beth's name to your favorite charity or non-profit institution.
