My husband and I met at Beth and Billy's wedding. What a wonderful night that was - where all Beth's Canadian family and friends were worried sick about her future with this "online stranger" she had met and who was going to whisk her away from us. 25+ years of happiness is what happened. A life that could be summed up with the words: compassion, joy, love, laughter. My dear friend, you leave behind a legacy of all of those attributes, and more. And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make. **Anne and Kevin**

Met Beth online in a BBS computer server many years ago. She went by the nickname Brittany. We all had lots of laughs and lots of fun. Tho I never met her and Bill (White Shadow) in real life it was like we were friends that we talked to everyday. The bbs folded and we lost contact but I have thought about Beth and Bill through the years. I am glad I got to spend a little bit of my time with her in the cyber world. She was quick witted, sometimes caustic as hell but always a great friend with awesome advice. Rest well Brittany...

When I found out you had left this world, dear Mirah, a flood of memories came.: The Christmastime Coffee and cookies, the amazing mashups you played, and the sound of your pets in the background sometimes.

Mostly though I remember you as truly believing in love and goodness. You not only spoke to us about love but you showed it You had a magical way of transforming a low mood to one of positive expectation. What a gift you had for making people feel better about life.

I loved your laugh, and your sense of humor.

i admired your bravery.

My life was truly enriched in having known you, and I will never forget you.

My deepest condolences to Beth's family.

When the world seemed to be spinning out of control with earthquakes, fires, floods... when we lost a shining star in the world of the arts... when we just needed to see the light at the end of the tunnel... we turned to you for comfort and assurance.

You were the heart and soul of Provincetown and the keeper of the Babylonians. We are better people in RL because of that.

Though I never touched you in real life, never got to share that RL hug I so longed for, never heard you sing Poor Mans Wine “live”, never got to get you with that one well placed paintball shot... I will not miss you because I will carry a part of you with me forever.

Godspeed Miz mcG.

I was 9 years old and had just moved to Oakville, Ontario. I was feeling shy at school with no friends. One day in the first week, a girl my age came running up to me and said "you are my cousin!" It turned out that Beth and I were second cousins. After that day, we became close friends and were often together playing horses, talking, laughing and jamming in her basement.
We stayed good friends through elementary school and high school, but lost touch after that. It was my joy to reconnect with Beth about a year ago on Facebook.
Beth was one of the most giving people I have ever met. She brought joy, laughter and love to all that knew her. Rest in peace Beth. The world was a better place because you were in it. I will miss you. ❤️

Beth was a wonderful and caring friend in Second Life and beyond. She always had a loving heart and that listening ear ready for us all. Her love knew no boundaries or species. Human or Critter, she loved us all. I miss her so much already. I will always miss her.

Dear Beth,
We knew each other for 10 years, through Second Life and real life. I will cherish all the times we spent together. The memories fill and comfort my heart, I can still hear your voice. You had, and even more so, still have a beautiful soul my friend. You made such an impact on me I will be forever grateful. I will hold on to our last IM where we both said "I love you", and will read the last chat we had, from time to time. You were SO full of love it's amazing how you were able to share it with so many. But I still feel that love and will NEVER forget you Beth. Love you forever. My heart goes out to you Billy. I am so sorry and sending my prayers and thoughts to you and your family.
