Berkley BEETON

October 17, 2005

BEETON, Berkley March 22, 1934 – October 13, 2005 It is with great sadness that the family of Berkley Allen Beeton announce his passing on Thursday, October 13, 2005 at the age of 71 years following a brief bout with cancer. Berkley was a multi- talented man who was comfortable on a combine, in control working under the hood of a car, at ease on the back of a horse, smiling as he worked on wood, relaxed as he tooled leather. He loved it all! His most recent and prideful accomplishment was the fact that he remained well enough to do his part in this fall’s final harvest. This was one of his happiest times of the year and he was very grateful that he remained a vital part of it. Berkley’s first and greatest love was his family and he is survived by his loving wife Janina, son Ralph (Dianne), daughter Jackie (Dave), and son Roger (Leah), as well as his six grandchildren and his two great-grandchildren. Berkley touched the lives of many and leaves behind a large group of family and friends who will deeply mourn his passing. Memorial services will be held Wednesday, October 19, 2005 at 11:00 a.m. at Knox United Church, Three Hills, Alberta with interment at Swalwell Cemetery. Arrangements in care of SUNSET FUNERAL SERVICE, Linden, 403-546-3903.
