Lead Summary

Beth Ann Mains, 61, of Hillsboro, passed away peacefully and suddenly Feb. 9, 2021 at her home.
She was born Nov. 7, 1959 in Cincinnati, the daughter of the late Abe Thomas and Zella Mae Sharpe Mains.
Beth never knew a stranger. To all the kids of the family, she was lovingly known as “G-ma Beth,” and her world was brighter because of them. Beth spent some of her happiest times carving and painting and talked fondly of her work at Community Action. She was a fan of Bob Marley, a talented guitarist and knew how to get down to some bluegrass. In her (and Bob Marley’s) words, she’d want us to know that “every little thing gonna be all right.”
Surviving are her daughter, Tishia Lynn (Shaloi) Gunton; son, Brandon Bowling; three grandchildren, Ian, Lennon and Lucy; nephew, Bret Mains; and many close friends and family.
In addition to her parents, Beth was preceded in death by her brother, Brian K. Mains; and her partner of several years, Tina Bowling.
Friends will be received Saturday, Feb. 13, 2021 from 3-5 p.m. at Rhoads-Edgington Funeral Home, 138 E. Main St., Hillsboro.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the American Council of the Blind of Ohio, 3805 North High St., Suite 305 Columbus, Ohio 43214.
