Please accept my deepest sympathy. Beth and I were close working colleagues in the late 1970's and early 1980's when she was head of the Ontario Craft Federation and I headed Visual Arts Ontario. We shared an office floor and would have wonderful talks most evenings about the trials and tribulations of supporting the arts and managing artists. Beth was always wonderfully feisty and intelligent and we had great laughs and fun times together. I loved the fact that Beth "lived life the way she saw fit" and had great respect for that. She was always straightforward and frank and could not abide duplicity or game playing in anyone. We will all miss her warmth and sense of humour. Sincerely, Bill Boyle
