She grew up in Brigham City, Daley City, Calif., and Logan, Utah. She married Arnold J. Balling in October 1937 and their marriage was later solemnized in the Logan LDS Temple in October 1957. After Arnold's passing, she married L. Mark Neuberger, and after his passing she married Lyle H. Saxton.

She attended Logan High School where she enjoyed playing softball and was the double tennis champion. Beth went on to attend beauty school. To her own admission, she enjoyed sloughing in the halls.

She worked as a receptionist for the Hale Clinic for 17 years and was also employed by the government as an enumerator. She served as a Pink Lady at the Logan Regional Hospital for many years and eared her 2,000-hour pin.

Memories and condolences may be shared with the family at www.webbmortuary.com.

A very special thank you to my dear friends and family, Marge, Vonda, Helene, Barbara, her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and nieces and nephews for their visits and their love and concern for me. I have loved you all. A special thank you to my chaplain, Brother Randall Bagley, who faithfully came to visit and always had a special message for me - and thanks for the pictures. To my new friends at Integrity Home Care and Hospice, I love you all and want to say thank you for your love to me, your patience and kindness, your concern and the gentle loving care you have given me. You are all truly angels and very special friends.

Thanks to my extended family Bob (Annette) Saxton, Randy (Marlene) Saxton, Jeff (Joelda) Saxton and Maryann (Doug) Adams. I also want to thank everyone who gave me such tender loving care and for your patience with me when I wasn't feeling very well. You are all angels. Also thanks to my loving pets Dakota #1, #2, and #3 for their love to me.

Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamonds glint on the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain; I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uprising rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there; I did not die.

Love you all,
Beth
