October 29, 1933 – February 07, 2022

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved mother Beverley.

Our Mother was born and raised in Calgary where she married and raised five children. In 1980 Bev moved to Kamloops with her two youngest children and remained until her passing.

Mom was very fond of the mountains and lakes around Kamloops. She enjoyed camping and boating and in her later years travelling. She enjoyed the Caribbean as one of her favorite destinations areas.

Beverley followed in her father’s footsteps and became a passionate gardener. There were numerous hours she would spend watering and tending to her plants and flowers. Mom was known for her incredible gardens with many people admiring and complimenting her on the beauty she would create. One of her favorite things about gardening was the hummingbirds and butterflies that would come to visit her while tending her plants.

Our mother would often share stories with us when she was a young girl. They most often included mom and her twin sister riding their horse they shared over the prairies and around their neighborhood called Grand Trunk, often with their young sister in tow. She always found it exhilarating to race across the open prairie with her black horse beneath her. She kept her fondness of horses with her for the duration of her life.

Survived by her sisters Barbara (twin sister), Lois and brother Don. Her children; Jeff (Nari), Greg, Colleen, Garry (Mary), Susan (Mike). Grandchildren; Jessica, Amy and Mia, Caitlin, Mitch and Jamie, Timothy and Tana. And several great grandchildren.

Bev was pre deceased by her mother’s Doris, Ethyl, and her father Robert. Her brother Yorke and baby sister Norma, Gary (divorced), Agusta (wife of Greg)

A celebration of life will be held in Calgary later this spring.

Condolences may be sent to the family at Kamloops Funeral Home.
