Lillian Beuton (Campbell) Towler, 96, of Newburgh, IN (formerly of Elizabethtown, KY) passed
away peacefully on September 16, 2020.
Beuton was born to James and Irene (Pryor) Campbell on August 28, 1924 in Lafayette, KY.
She was the oldest of their six children. She married Grover C. Towler, Jr in 1946 and had two
children, Patricia Ann (Towler) Lockwood and Grover C. Towler, III. Beuton was a long-time
member of Severns Valley Baptist Church in Elizabethtown. She was a bookkeeper and retired
from the Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Elizabethtown. She loved her family and friends
dearly and adored being “Nana” to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She is survived by her son, Grover (Julie) Towler of Newburgh, IN; son-in-law Chip Lockwood of
Syracuse, NY; grandchildren Skip (Julie), Daniel (Amy Beth), and Ben (Sarah) Lockwood,
Matthew Towler, and Marissa (Andrew) West; great-grandchildren Kingston and Emi Towler,
Evelyn and Eloise West, Harry, Teddy, Hunter, Rosalee, Sam and Lillian Lockwood; sister Jo
Ann (Wilburn) Wilson, and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Grover, daughter Patricia, brothers Marvin, Leonard
and Tommy Campbell, and sister Susie Towler.
The family would like to extend a very special thank you to her caregivers at Bell Oaks Assisted
Living Facility and Heritage Hospice.
Graveside services will be held in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, at a later date. Memorial
contributions in Beuton’s honor may be made to the charity of your choosing.

I worked with Beuton at Coca-Cola for several years. She was a very sweet and kind lady. My sympathies to her family.

Mark Puckett says
Growing up, we kids knew all the moms in the neighborhood. They all were our moms, especially when we stepped out of line. There was never any quibble from your “real mom” when another’s mom chastised you — it was all the more reason to be punished for “acting up” around the neighbors. Beuton would laugh with us, at us, and send us home when needed.
Beuton was generous, kind, and strong woman. She served the Lord with gladness and her love for the Lord was obvious. She was a treasure to all who knew her, and now she joins the choirs of Heaven and is reunited with all those whom she loved and preceded her.
