Beverley Doreen Walker née Katzin

Beverley Doreen Walker née Katzin, born in 1941 in Calgary, Alberta, passed peacefully at Huron Hospice on Oct. 19, 2023, after a short bout with pancreatic cancer.

 

Bev was known as a downhill ski instructor, rodeo rider, medical lab tech, print maker, silk artist, avid gardener, gourmet chef, arts advocate, extraordinary volunteer, world traveler and loving wife and mother. She led an adventurous and productive life. 
She had an undeniably feisty spirit, huge heart, and a kindness that was felt by every person she encountered.

 

Bev is survived by loving family, husband Ronald, daughters Shawna and Tammy, granddaughters Myelle and Iyla, son-in-law Damon.

 

A special thank you to all the medical professionals whose devotion, compassionate and empathetic care was gratefully appreciated during a difficult and heart-wrenching time. Thank you to Huron Hospice, Community Paramedicine for Long-Term Care (CPLTC) and our team from Care Partners.

 

A celebration of her extraordinary life will occur in the coming spring.

 

Donations to Huron Hospice would be appreciated.
