A loving mother and grandmother, Beulah’s heart was always open to those around her. She cherished her family and spent countless hours nurturing them, creating memories filled with warmth and laughter. Her love for family was matched only by her dedication to her church, where she taught Sunday School, and played the piano for many years at the Toronto Community Church.

Beulah was a woman of great strength, shaped by her work on the farm. She embraced the hard work of farm life, often tending to the chores of milking cows and taking care of the chickens. But beneath her strength was a gentle and nurturing spirit. She was a wonderful cook, and her meals brought comfort and joy to all who gathered around her table.

Beulah had a special love for nature, particularly birdwatching. She would often be found in her favorite spots, quietly observing the birds that filled her life with peace and wonder. Her love for God’s creation was reflected in the way she appreciated the simple things in life.

In her quieter moments, Beulah often found joy in the company of loved ones as they gathered around to play cards or share stories. Her selflessness, warmth, and joyful spirit will be dearly missed by her family and all who knew her.
