Beth and Sidney Self were married 52 years before his death. Beth worked in the cafeteria at Orvis Risner Elementary for several years but was mainly a housewife.

A long time member of the Edmond Church of Christ, she joined the Eufaula Church in 2007 where she was active in the Ladies Bible Class.
Beth was preceded in death by her parents; her husband Sid, son Wilburn and sisters Jane and Ruth.
She is survived by her daughter Lynda and husband David Van Nostrand of Eufaula; sons and their wives, Donald and Wana Self of Edmond, Mike and Donna Self of Guthrie, Okla., and Jack and Joy Self of Edmond.
