About Nancy Elizabeth “Beth” Moxley Reavis

Beth Moxley Reavis was a kind and generous person who loved being a mother and giving back to her community. Beth Moxley Reavis


She graduated from Forbush High School in 1973 where she was a member of the Forbush Dancing Boots. Reavis went on to attend Appalachian State University, when she fell in love and got married.

Reavis later served as the director of Boonville’s afterschool daycare program; she loved working with children, including children with special needs.  

She also loved being a mother to her two sons, Robert and Jacob.
