چکیده
Elizabeth (Beth) Jones reveled in the excitement of scientific discovery and fostered curiosity with steadfast determination. With high standards and rigor, she applied a firm but gentle hand to cultivate the curiosity of generations of students. Inquisitiveness about science and the workings of nature was threaded through her life, unabated, from early childhood. Born in Seattle, Beth spent her first decade in Diablo, a small town at the base of the Washington Cascades, in the Skagit River Gorge, where her father worked for Seattle City Light at the Diablo Dam Powerhouse. Lacking even a highway—trains provided the sole access—the setting provided Beth and her three siblings fertile fields for adventure. Educated in a one-room schoolhouse (Figure 1), they spent their days playing alongside the dam, building, climbing, and exploring the environs of Diablo Lake.
