August 13, 1940 - April 23, 2023
*************************************************************
Beth Lynn Fanucchi (nee Beth) peacefully entered into the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on Sunday, April 23, 2023 after 82 years of a life well lived and full of love. She was born August 13, 1940 in Bakersfield, CA, to Elwood Mathias Bell, a Cowboy and Maxine Leona Miller, a Hospital Administrator.
Beth grew up in Marin County, California and graduated from Marin Catholic High School in 1957. She met her husband, Robert (Bob) Fanucchi while both were on vacation in Clearlake, CA, swimming with friends near the pier at the lake. They were married in 1958 and had three daughters and a son and raised their family in Livermore, CA. Bob and Beth also lived in Tracy, CA, Lincoln City, OR and currently in Sheridan, OR.
She was dedicated to serving her family, friends and community. She worked in the medical field as a medical records facilitator and enjoyed entertaining, gardening, French Country decorating and antiquing. She even had a small thrift shop on the Oregon Coast and up until she could no longer get out, she loved going to the Coast.
Beth loved the Lord and reflected God’s grace throughout her life. She consistently worked to enhance the fruits of a relationship with God. Even in her most difficult times, Beth was at peace and never in doubt as to where she would spend her eternity.
Beth is survived by her husband of 65 years, Bob Fanucchi, her daughters Cindy Johnson, Linda Werner, Dee Fanucchi, son Robert Fanucchi II, half sister Georgia Ritzinger and step sister Pat Arbini, as well as 6 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her brother Harry Thornton and sister Elaine York. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to giftedwishes.org
