WILFRID BEAULIEU

With sadness we announce the peaceful passing of Wilfrid Beaulieu.
Left to cherish his memory are his children, Dennis (Nadine), Joy (Don), Paulette, Pauline (Rodney), Monique, Robert (Penny); his sister, Margaret; brother, Marcel (Dianne); 13 grandchildren; and 14 great-grandchildren. Predeceased by his wife, Marguerite (Dansereau); son, Marc; parents, Charles and Angelina; brothers, Pete, Eddie; and sister, Lorraine.
WILF LIVED LIFE. Born in St. Boniface, his youth was spent on hockey rinks and ball diamonds. His athletic skills paid off. He was employed by many hockey teams, and made a career out of playing a sport he loved. He spent four years in the Second World War. He was married for 67 years, raised seven kids in Emerson, Edmonton, Brandon and Winnipeg. He had a career as an Immigration Officer for 35 years, retired in 1983, and spent 20 winters in Palm Springs, trips to Hawaii, Florida and all over Canada.
His resilience, ethics, hard work and integrity carried him through 10 decades. He lived and witnessed many changes in this world. The one thing he said that never changed were people, he could read people through his excellent conversation skills. Family, friends, successes, travel, good health and love of life; those were his passions.

Thank you Dad for all of your guidance
and love. We were blessed to have you.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Kidsport Manitoba.
