The Funeral Service
After watching the service online, if you can leave a guest message to let the family know you have joined into the service, that would be greatly appreciated.
This service will have a password applied once edited (normally within 3 to 5 days following the service), you will then need to contact the family for the password to access.
Following the service, the footage will be posted and you can watch at a later time if you were unable to watch at the time of the service.
Deepest condolences Steve and Michael and families.
Your mum was my maths/science teacher at Myrtleford High and such an inspiration,which I will always treasure.
Will miss her laughter,posts on Facebook and comments on my Facebook posts to continually tell me to call her Beth not Mrs Crowley
Taken too soon.Thanks so much for sharing further elements of her life with us.
Hi Steve and Michael, My deepest sympathy’s for the loss of your Mum. I meet your Mum and Dad while traveling by train from the port in Greece to Athens sharing a bottle of Mateus around 1982. We traveled for the next three weeks with your Mum and Dad throughout Greece and parts of Italy. We again traveled together when we came to Australia in 1986 and again when your whole family lived in Ohio. You all came to Ontario to visit and tour these parts. Yes, your Mum had a great travel passion. I still have many fond memories. Feel free to reach to me if ever in our territory or just and email to say how you guys are doing. I still have a picture of you guys sitting in one of my old cars.
Thank you very much for the opportunity to view the memorial service from Sydney. Loved all the speeches full of sadness, insights, memories and humour. I’m sure Beth would have too, particularly enjoying the laughs, sharing the sadness of some history, and appreciative of the unstinting tributes. It was also great to see all the photos. And so pleasing that people clapped! All too often there seems to be a belief that clapping is inappropriate at funerals, so wonderful talks don’t get the applause they should.
I met Beth when I was managing Schools Engagement at Western Sydney University, and a partnership with the Polly Farmer Foundation was added to the advancement programs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander school students run out of my unit. She was a pleasure to work with – knowledgeable, strategic, caring, understanding, practical, on-the-ball and adaptable. Always collaborative, easy to get on with and open to discussion, never a drama queen. Partnership endeavours can be fraught – and we had three other stakeholder groups represented on the program committee – but Beth’s modus operandi was key in that one’s success.
We stayed in touch after we both retired, and had arranged to meet in Melbourne in 2021 during a road trip I’d planned. Unfortunately it had to be postponed due to lockdowns, and when I finally did it in 2022 Beth was away exploring the Birdsville Track. We shared a love of travel, and enjoyed following each other’s adventures on FB. I am so sorry there won’t be any more for her, and that I won’t see her again.
Much sympathy and best wishes to Steve, Michael, their partners, the baby, all family and friends, and Nimma of course, Anne xx
A wonderful celebration of my dear cousin, Beth’s life!
She certainly lived life to the fullest.
A remarkable woman gone too soon. Inverloch will never be the same without you Beth! A beautiful service to honour a life well lived. Love to all the Crowley’s.
We are relatively recent arrivals as friends of the Crowley family.
From 2006, and for 14 consecutive winter seasons, we were the managers of Myrtleford Ski Club. It was in that role that we came to know Beth, Peter, Steve and Michael. However as the years passed our relationship changed considerably. We developed strong friendships and deep respect.
We have been both shocked and saddened by this tragic loss.
Beth, you will always inspire us with your thoroughly positive attitude to life. We will greatly miss your visits.
What a beautiful service to celebrate such an astonishingly well lived life of a truly remarkable woman. Such beautiful words spoken and memories shared. I will be forever grateful to have been so lucky to have shared some of my life with yours Beth, and I cherish our memories and our special friendship. All my love to the Crowley’s x

What an incredible life lived. The stories and memories shared were a testament to how loved Beth was. A beautiful celebration. Love to Steve Michael and all the family and friends of Beth.
Incredible words from everyone showing just what an amazing lady Beth was. Thoughts and love are with the Crowleys.
Now to raise a glass to Beth.
Such an amazing woman she was who definitely enjoyed life the fullest.
Much love and a big hug for Steve and Michael.
She was the kindest person I knew. She cared for those around her so dearly, this kindness I will appreciate for the rest of my life.
Beth, what an amazing woman, we have all something to learn from your many great attributes in life. My thoughts are with your family at this time.
