Obituary of Beth Irene Searle Campbell

Beth Irene Searle Campbell, Meridian, ID, passed away Saturday, July 21, 2018, from a short battle with cancer. She has now completed her bucket list. The only thing she had on her bucket list was to go be with Jesus.

Later she attended and graduated from Boise State University with a Bachelor of Science and Psychology Degree. She did this while raising 2 girls and taking care of an ill husband.

After her husband died she carried on with being the head of the household and eventually made a new family by blending in and sharing one house with her dear friends Tim and Tina Maki. The family would like to thank Tim and Tina for all the care and love that was given to Beth in her final days. They spent many hours loving on Beth and seeing to everything she needed.
