BEVERLY MARGARET (PEG) STRECKER
Date of Passing: Oct 13, 2005
Offer Condolences or Memory Make a donation to CancerCare Manitoba Foundation
BEVERLY MARGARET (PEG) STRECKER It is with great sadness that we announce Peg's passing in Vancouver on October 13, 2005, peacefully with her family at her side. Peg is survived by Gorton, her loving husband of 63 years; her daughters, Catherine (Hugh), Susan (Baron), and her three adored grandchildren, Caitlin, Liam, and Aidan. Peg was born and raised in Winnipeg and she and Gort moved to Vancouver in 1987 to be closer to their family. Peg was blessed with a wonderful and full life that included family, great friends and travel. As the pitfalls of age caught up to her, she refused to give in and chose instead to fight back and teach Aidan as much as she could about life and being strong. The entire family would like to thank the many members of the Vancouver medical community for all of their kind help over the past years. Peg wanted everyone to consider how they might contribute to eradicating cancer and then act on that consideration. Therefore, in lieu of flowers, donations to the BC Cancer Foundation or CancerCare Manitoba would be greatly appreciated. By Mom's request, there will be no funeral, instead a private family memorial will take place.
