Beta Valette Caesar was born on November 15, 1978 to Joseph S. Tart Sr. and Ann C. Lyerly in Winston-Salem, NC. After a courageous battle with lung disease that she fought with grace and dignity she transitioned from this life to the next on November 1, 2020. Beta attended Parkland High School where she was an exceptional student and participated in several clubs and extracurricular activities. She was student body president and elected as homecoming queen during her senior year class of ‘97. After graduating from Parkland High School, she went on to attend North Carolina Central University where she pledged Delta Sigma Theta. She was elected president of the Alpha Lambda Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated 1999-2000.

She also holds a Master's Degree in Business Administration, and a Master's Degree in Political Science both from Strayer University. She went on to work in the finance industry for over 20 years. She was a Wealth Mortgage Processing Manager II, AVP at BB&T. Beta had a profound love of family. She was taught by her Uncle Piggy to always know who her family was and to be there for them. Beta grew up in a spiritual family. She accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior along with her sister Courtney and Uncle Alan in her grandmother’s basement at the age of 12. She shared her love of God with everyone she knew and was known for sending positive spirit filled scriptures through text messages throughout the day. There are no words to describe how much she will be missed, but our faith teaches us she is in a better place.
