Beulah Milbern

Beulah Milbern, a cherished soul from Monroe, Ohio, passed away peacefully at the remarkable age of 104, enveloped in the warmth of her loving family.

A devoted mother, Beulah leaves behind her beloved children: Glenda Penley, Marcia Rogers, Paula Harger, Pam Lindsay, and Kevin Milbern. She was a proud grandmother to eleven wonderful grandchildren, a great-grandchild, and five great-great-grandchildren who will forever hold her memory dear.

Beulah was preceded in death by her devoted husband, Glen Milbern, and her beloved children, Eddie Milbern and Reggie Milbern.

Raised on a picturesque farm in Kentucky, Beulah's life was a tapestry woven with love and adventure.   Beulah cultivated a deep appreciation for the beauty that surrounded her, particularly in her passion for gardening. She found joy in nurturing her beloved flowers, especially irises, generously sharing her plants and transplants with friends and family alike as she later settled in Monroe.

Possessing a spirit vibrant with curiosity, Beulah embarked on journeys that spanned each of the fifty states in the United States, and her travels extended far beyond, reaching into the enchanting lands of Europe and South America. She chronicled her adventures in diaries that captured both her everyday moments and those extraordinary experiences that defined her life. One such compilation of her journey can be found preserved in the local library, allowing others to glimpse the rich tapestry of her explorations and cherished memories. Beulah's travels were enriched by the steadfast presence of her husband, making each moment all the more special.

Often likened to a modern-day Amelia Earhart, Beulah was captivating to converse with, her stories transporting listeners back in time to share in her vivid experiences.

Throughout her long life, Beulah embraced the gift of time, skillfully crafting exquisite quilts that transformed remnants of clothing into timeless heirlooms. She dedicated hours to this artistic endeavor, leaving behind creations that will continue to warm hearts for generations to come.

Beulah Milbern's departure leaves a profound void in the lives of her family, friends, and the community. Few leave this world leaving such a significant legacy of compassion, love, and craftsmanship. Her spirit will be deeply missed, and her words and creations will resonate through the lives she touched, ever inspiring those who remember her.
