Beatrice was a remarkable woman and her contributions to the community of Kirkland Lake were recognized by those who knew her and met her on her walks downtown or in her beloved garden. As her daughter Nora says. "She was always there." A quiet, unassuming woman who never sought the spotlight and devoted herself completely to her family, her friends and her church. She died in 1995 in her 98th year.
