She was born on March 05, 1931, in Fairmont, the fourth child of the late Isaac Franklin Butcher and Madge Marie (Harris) Butcher.
She started her career at Westinghouse/North American Philips and it was at that time she was introduced to and later married to the love of her life, the late Sherman L. Kisner, on April 17, 1948. They were married for 57 years.
Bea was a devout Christian and attended Rhea’s Chapel Methodist and St. Paul’s United Methodist Church in Watson all her adult life.
She worked at many places performing a host of tasks, but the job of being Mom and Mamaw was her most loved of all. To Bea, family was everything, and she was a very protective of her family.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by son, Sherman Keith Kisner; three brothers, Bernard, Robert and Beverly Butcher – Bea was the third sibling to pass in exactly a one-year time period and a dear lifelong friend, Shelley Thompson.
Bea’s family would like to extend their gratitude to the St. Barbara’s Nursing Home staff, who took excellent care of their mother, as well as WV Caring Hospice, for the friendship and assistance extended to their mother.
