Beth Ann (nee Russell) Archibald – Aug. 19, 1955 - July 22, 2023

Patient, kind and caring, understanding, and never judgmental. The most selfless soul anyone knew, always eager to help. The caretaker of all people. The brightest light on any day. The mother anyone could hope for, and the absolute best grandma. Beth loved swimming, the lake, and growing exquisite gardens. She enjoyed many years caring for children at Special School District. She cherished time with family and friends.

Beloved mother of Thomas Archibald and Katherine (David) Rapp; loving grandmother of Avery and Dominic Rapp; adoring daughter of Shirley and the late Richard Russell; cherished sister of David and Dan (Michelle) Russell; dear aunt of Nicole (Chris) Redfern, Nicholas, Tenaya, Colin, Taryn and Danielle Russell. Our dearest sister-in-law, great-aunt, cousin and friend to many.
