Beth Terrien By Bob DeLoyd 10/06/2007 Our little Community lost a longtime resident, neighbor and friend Beth Terrien. Services were held on Tuesday October 2 at the Mountain Valley Memorial Park in Joshua Tree where many of Beth’s family and friends attended. So many in fact that the little chapel was full and some folks had to stand outside. I got to meet some of her family and chat with them. All talked about what a fine cook she was, her good nature, her love for animals, and always making the best out of bad situations. I remember she would yell out “Hey good looking!” whenever I’d walk passed her at Bingo. The first time I was surprised and a little embarrassed, but her big smile put me right at ease. After Beth’s Services we all went over to the Copper Mountain Mesa Community Center and held a potluck memorial in memory of Beth. I think there were over seventy five folks that showed up. There haven’t been that many folks at our Community Center for years! I saw folks from our area who came by to pay their respects who I haven’t seen for a longtime. Marcie Hines, who runs the kitchen, was afraid there wasn’t going to be enough food to go around, but folks just kept bringing in pans of fried and barbecued chicken, casseroles, salads of many kinds, pies, cakes, cookies, that Steve Tuttle and I had to move in another table to hold all the food. I can truthfully say that no one who was there went hungry and most ate way too much: I know I did. We gave Beth a great sendoff Copper Mountain Mesa style! Beth would have liked that.
