It has been a number of years since we last saw Bev, her warm smile and those blue eyes that were also Rob’s. We send our deepest condolences to Bev’s family. You have so many wonderful stories to share.
Debbie & families: So sorry for your loss. I worked with your Mom @Scotibank eons ago. She had a smile for everyone she met. Thinking of all of you at this sad time.
So sorry to hear of Bev's passing. Such a lovely person. Her dear mother Jessie lived in our apartment building for many, many years. Loving condolences to her family.
To Bev’s family, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Bev always talked about her grand-children and children with a story and a laugh, she had the sweetest giggle. She’s now reunited with the 3 men in her life who she’s missed terribly and I’m sure telling them her cute tales. Our little Beverley will be very missed.

We are sorry to read of Bev's passing. We had not seen Bev in a lot of years, but she was one of those people you are just drawn to - a wonderful personality and a great smile. Our sincere condolences to all who loved her.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Bev/Nanny Bev. She was an extraordinary woman whose kindness, warmth, and generosity touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Bev opened her door and her heart to us when she met Keith Ferguson (our Dad/Grandpa), blessing us with love, laughter, and memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Rest peacefully, Nanny Bev.
Debbie and Family - I am so sorry to hear about your mom; she always had the brightest, most cheerful smile. I have fond memories of her from when we were kids, and also later in life when I would see her at the bank or grocery store. I'm thinking of you during this difficult time.
