Elizabeth, lovingly known as Beth, Treschitta from Marietta, GA passed away in her sleep on October 25th.

Born on November 13th, 1966 in Torrance, California, lived to be 59 years old. She grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio. She attended Andrews School for high school, where she was on the basketball and volleyball teams. Before graduating in 1984, her summers were spent at Camp Firebird where she did every activity from arts and crafts to synchronized swimming. There she became fluent in Spanish and took multiple trips to Mexico City, Mexico, to visit friends from camp.

In 1988, she earned her bachelor's degree in Spanish at Hillsdale College where she was an active member of the Chi Omega Fraternity. She later attended travel school, where she began a 20 year career in travel. She co-founded a successful travel agency, Lee Travel. In 2010, she switched careers and pursued her love of music as a booking agent at Sam Hill Entertainment for 10 years and a manager of the Motown/Funk band, Crystal Clear until she retired in 2020.

Beth will be remembered in her community as someone who truly cared about and for those around her. She was actively involved in her church, Riverside Church of Christ, where she was baptized in 2023.
