Beryl met and married Wilbert and started a family
before moving to Osoyoos, BC in 1958. Wilbert died in
1964. She married Cecil in 1966 and moved to Oliver
expanding their blended family that eventually reached
11 in number.
Cecil passed away in December 2000. She moved to
Kelowna in 2011, where she was closer to Janet, Jane,
and Wendie, and very much enjoyed living at Lakeshore
Place meeting many new friends.
A strong woman who was kind, caring and generous,
Beryl will be remembered fondly by her family and all
who knew her. A Celebration of Life will be held later in
the summer. Donations in her memory can be made to
the Kelowna Gospel Mission, kelownagospelmission.ca.
