Andrea Beth Willett, known in her later years as Andy-Beth, died on September 21, 2026, in Pullman, Washington—the town that was home for nearly all of her years, and where she was known and loved by family, friends, and neighbors.

Born August 14, 1969, she was adopted in her first year by Roger Willett, a chemistry professor at Washington State University, and Thelma Willett, who worked at several local law firms and later at WSU. She grew up one of six children and attended Pullman schools. She was predeceased by her mother in 2012 and her father in 2019.

Andy-Beth had a ready laugh and a good sense of humor. She was a loyal Cougar, never more so than when Washington State played the Huskies, and she often went to games with her parents. In recent years she greatly enjoyed her cat, Larry, adopted in 2023, and delighted in his company and his antics. She was grateful for the care of Dr. Stephen Hall of Pullman, who saw her through several difficult health challenges and helped her achieve a better quality of life, and for the kindness of those who helped her at home.

She is survived by her five siblings: Juanita Hansen and her husband Barry of Lake Forest Park, Washington; DuWayne Willett and his wife Lauren of Coppell, Texas; Kathryn Verbeck and her husband Craig of Oregon City, Oregon; Eric Willett and his wife Gracelyn of Kent, Washington; and Dallas Willett and his wife Kira of Carlsbad, California; and by twelve nieces and nephews.

A graveside service will be held Monday, September 28, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. at Pullman Cemetery, 500 Fairmount Drive, Pullman, Washington. Sympathy messages may be shared with the family in the online guestbook.
