BEVERLEY ADELE RAMSEY

(nee LYNE)

  SEPTEMBER 19, 1930 – JUNE 13, 2019

 

Our mother Bev read the obits every day, so for those of you who read these, Bev peacefully passed away on the morning of Thursday, June 13, 2019.

Bev was born in Hamilton, ON, the eldest daughter of Fred and Lillian Lyne. They along with her brother Ted moved to Winnipeg in 1934. Sister Elinor was born in 1936. Bev attended school in Elmwood where she formed ‘a gang of girlfriends’ that were her lifelong friends.  She graduated from St. John High and later received her BSc. from Home Economics in 1951. Bev met Harold on a blind date in March of 1951 and they were married in September of 1955. Her work history included Canada Packer’s and the Canadian Red Cross in the crossmatch lab until her retirement in 1992.

Bev and Harold have a son Doug (Avril) and grandson Steve of BC; daughter Barb (Barry) and grandchildren Lindsay and Bryce (Danielle). Bev was very proud of her family and devoted her life to caring for all of us.

Mom’s favourite pastime was gardening, she took great pride in her flowers and hand weeding her perfect lawn. This interest continued in her condo life. Bev and Harold and the family enjoyed summers in the Whiteshell. Later, winters in Florida and Vegas.

Bev will be happy to re-unite with her many girlfriends who have passed before her….

Go play in the garden Mom, no rules, no curfew, no pain and no worries.

Many thanks to Dr. Zabolotny and Dr. Stitz for their care of Mom in the last few years.  Sincere thanks to Dr. Aaron Tratchenberg and the lovely ICU nursing staff at St. Boniface Hospital for their tender care in her last few hours.

A family memoriam has taken place. If friends so desire, memorial donations may be made to a charity of their choice.
