CALIFORNIA- A graveside service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 17, for Marvye Maye Gibson, Beydler, 85, California, who died Saturday, July 27, 2019.

Arrangements are under the direction of Bland-Brumback Funeral Home.

Survivors include her husband, Martin Roy Beydler; a son, Dwain Beydler and wife Kathy and three daughters, Cheryl Beydler Klopfenstein and husband Dave, Lisa Beydler House and Marie Beydler Williams and husband Darryl; seven grandchildren, Kimberly Beydler Hoffman and Ryan Beydler, Elizabeth and Rebekah Klopfenstein, Nadine House Haire and Darlene House and Jared Williams and one great-grandchild, Danielle Grace Williams.

Mrs. Beydler was born March 10, 1934, in Pettigrew, Ark., to John and Edna Pearl Gibson. As the youngest within her family she had two sisters and two brothers, Nylene Gibson Stock and Lorene Gibson Evans and John Gibson, Jr. and Bob Gibson.

Mrs. Beydler moved away from Pettigrew in 1947, traveling out west with her folks to the states of Washington and California. During this time her dad found work within different orchards and vineyards. In 1949 her parents purchased a farm and relocated west of Jerico Springs.

In 1949, during a Christmas event held at Independence Church, she met Martin Roy Beydler and they both graduated from Stockton High School in 1951. After graduation she moved to Kansas City, Mo., to work at the Federal Reserve Bank. She became engaged in August of 1953 and she and her husband were married on Oct. 3, 1954, at the Gibson Farm.

In 1955, while her husband was still in the Navy, she moved to California. In 1959 they relocated to Santa Maria, Calif., and in 1963, along with their four young children, they moved to Mission Hills, just north of Lompoc, Calif. and just east of Vandenberg Air Force Base.

Throughout her life, from the time she accepted the Lord in 1942, she used the talents and abilities the Lord gifted her to dedicate her life and purpose for the sharing of her faith, to work and teach within the children's ministries within the church, within Child Evangelism and within the American Sunday School Union. Her life and her dedication to prayer and serving others in the Lord brought inspiration, purpose, challenge and encouragement to family, friends and neighbors.
