Fort Bragg Advocate-News 04-15-2004

Betty Jean Fales of Fort Bragg died Wednesday, April 7, 2004 after a short 
illness. Born on Oct 28, 1937 in Covelo, Ca., to Arthur and Georgia Campbell. 
She was 66. Memorial services were held on April 10. Arrangements were made by 
Chapel by the Sea. Mrs. Fales grew up and attended schools in Mendocino county. 
She was a homemaker, small business owner (Eager Beaders Bead Company) and an 
Avon Sales Rep. She enjoyed crocheting and doing her Native American beadwork. 
She was a member of the Sherwood Valley Band of pomo Indians where she always 
stayed involved one way or another. She was special to everyone who know her 
because of her caring and unselfish attitude. Her wheelchair never stopped her 
from trying to stay active and she never complained ever of being in pain. She 
was a co-chairman in 1965 of the PTA Child Health Conference and recieved a 
letter from the Public Health Nurse thanking her for having everything set up 
and staffed twice a month with volunteers. She is survived by her husband of 48 
years, Thomas H Fales Sr; daughters, Leslie Fales, Susan and Noel Wickstrom, 
Lisa and George Brown, and Jodi Fales; son, Tom and Gina Fales. She is also 
survived by her sisters, Harriet Rhodes of Fort Bragg, Margaret Hoaglen of 
Covelo, brother Wayne Campbell of Willits, and grandchildren Kyle and Stevie 
Porter, Andy and Taylor Fales, Riley and K.C. Brown
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations are suggested to the Mendocino Coast 
Dialysis Project and the Arthritis Foundation.
