Beverley June Burrows

Beverley "Bev" Burrows passed away on October 4, 2013 in White Rock, BC. Sadly, she was followed only four days later by her cherished sister, Shirley McKaye in Oakville, Ontario. Bev is survived by her daughters Anne and Lisa, son Stephen and son-in-law Robert, as well as her nieces, nephews and godchildren. She was predeceased by her devoted husband Edward "Ted" Burrows. A loving wife, mother, mother-in-law, sister, aunt and godmother, family was of the utmost importance to Bev. She also maintained many long relationships with friends. Bev was an excellent cook and enjoyed preparing meals for her family and friends. She enjoyed bridge, movies, music, concerts, gardening, reading, and letter writing. She was an active member of St. Mark's Anglican Church. After raising their family in Toronto, and after Bev's retirement from the North York Board of Education, Bev and Ted relocated to British Columbia where they took advantage of the extended gardening season and an active social life in their new community. The transition to the west coast was a happy one. We cherish her memory and miss her deeply.A private family celebration will be held. Flowers are gratefully declined.
