Beulah Elizabeth Koster of Dunbar, died September 26, 2012, surrounded by her family at Sweetbrier Memory Unit.
Born February 26, 1916 in Jackson County, WV, she was one of four daughters of the late Holly H. and Ella Bennett.
She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 51 years, Ernest C. in 1996 and by her sisters, Beatrice Hite, Pam Gorrell and Pauline Vickers and by an infant daughter, Marie.
She is survived by her three children, Ronald (Denise) of Winfield, John (Cindy) of Cross Lanes and Barbara of Dunbar. She has five grandchildren who were the love of her life-Sara Koster Lacy of Cross Lanes, Brian Koster of Huntington, Hannah Koster of Cross Lanes, Mary (Koster) Dorsey of Cross Lanes and Nicolas Koster of Cross Lanes. She has four great grandchildren-Brittany, Gary, Jakob and Bennett. She also has many nieces and nephews.

She was a sixty-plus year resident of Dunbar and was a member of the Order of Eastern Star, Dunbar Chapter for over 50 years. She was also a member of the United Methodist Women of Humphreys Memorial United Methodist Church for over 50 years.
