A beautiful and lovely lady. I remember her when I worked at Lucknow Pharmacy coming in with a smile and always so nice. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.
Blessings to all of your family, especially the Butcher Family on the loss of their mother in law and grandmother. May your memories be rich and strength from God be graceful.
Sincere sympathy to the family in the passing of their Mom and Grandma Beth. She was a great neighbour and friend of my parents Henry and Ruby Matthews at the Nile. Many days Beth, Mother, Helen, Dorothy and myself picked wild raspberries in the bush for the day and then they made jam for the winter. Great memories of Beth and her family. Thinking of you all at this sad time.
What a wonderful grandmother she was. She will always have a special place in my heart. She was always so happy to see her great great grandbabies, (along with other family members of course), come in for a visit at Maitland Manor. The little ones just perked her right up! Will miss her dearly!
