Beryle Elaine McCurrach (nee Boardman)
February 20, 1953 – July 12, 2017
Beryle passed away peacefully on July 12th after living with Alzheimer’s for 7 years.
Left with her love and fond memories are husband Allan, daughters Leslie (Neal), Kate (Fraser), granddaughters Jean, Alison and Evelyn, father Orville, brother Gary (Sherry), a niece Alison (Ben), nephews Matt and Jeff (Airefyl), and a sister-in-law, brother-in-law, cousins and friends.
Born in Lethbridge, AB in 1953 Beryle tagged along with her family to Richmond, BC in 1959. She met the love of her life in 1973 and they moved to Kamloops in 1976 where their 40th wedding anniversary was celebrated last year.
Beryle’s great joy was her family. She gave us much love and support. She especially liked being involved with the younger generation as she did as a Guide leader. The young ones brought her imaginative ideas out which led to many fun projects. Blessed with a creative aptitude, and a love of making things for others let Beryle’s generous spirit shine.
Our lives were made better by knowing her.
Sincere thanks to all of Beryle’s medical practitioners for their kind support; to the staff at Gemstone who added quality, comfort and humour to Beryle’s life in her last year; and to the Alzheimer Society of BC for their support helping families travel down this difficult road. Special thanks to Donna Anderson in Manitoba for a lifetime of friendship and enjoyable correspondence.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer Society of BC.
There will be a private family service at a later date.
