It is with heavy hearts, after a hard-fought battle with cancer, Bev passed away at the Selkirk Regional Health Centre with family by her side.
Bev is survived by her husband Denis; son Jonathan (Meaghan); grandchildren, Paige and Parker; her mom Elsie Taylor; sisters, Barb (Aime), Brenda (Rick) and Rhonda (Ron); sisters-in-law, Claudette and Sylvia (Paul); step-father-in-law Gordon Cross; and auntie Laura; along with niece and nephews, great-nieces and nephews, many cousins, special friends and all the friends Bev has made over the years. Bev was predeceased by her dad Bud; mother and father-in-law, Carmel and Alf; brother-in-law Wayne; and her fur baby Wasabi.
Bev graduated from LSRCSS in 1976 and St. Boniface Nursing School in 1980. Bev was employed by Manitoba Clinic and SWEP Management. After retirement, Bev worked at Manitoba Parks in Falcon Lake. Bev loved travelling with Denis, family and friends especially to Hawaii, the Caribbean and their cruises. She enjoyed her champagne, wine, cross stitching, gardening and many card games.
Thank you to all the doctors and nurses that helped Bev with her journey. Special thanks to Rhonda and Ron for opening their home to us during Bev's final months.

I was Ben's babysitter when we lived in Netley. She always had a giggle and a happy face. I have many memories of playing with the Taylor girls cause I lived across the road from them. My condolences go out to her husband, mother Elsie, sisters and son and all who loved this angel. Peace be with you all and KNOW she is playing cards with Bud her dad. - Posted by: Deborah Tio (Old friend) on: Apr 14, 2023

Harry & Myself got to meet Beverly & Denis when we first moved to Falcon Lake around 18 years ago. Bev had this beautiful face that expressed Love & Happiness. She was a Ray of Sunshine that drove around the Parks Campgrounds on her ParksMobile, planting flowers in the spring and attending to her daily chores that she was responsible for. Over the years we had the pleasure of taking a Cruise to Alaska with around twenty other people and Denis & Bev being our Special Tour Guides. Bev went through her cancer journey so very bravely with her special partner Denis, who was beside her for every moment of this heartbraking time. We will always miss you Bev as you were a faithful & loving friend to us all. Rest in Peace in Heaven and visit all our Loved Ones that we have lost. Vichnayut Pamjut! Everlasting Memories!

We truly were blessed knowing Bev. She was such a caring, loving, happy person. We have fond memories of visiting Dennis and Bev at Falcon Lake, her happy place. When she worked at the campground she wizzed around the campground smiling and waving at everyone. She connected with people in a very special way. Dennis, we are truly sorry for your loss and send our love to you and Jon and family. Linda and Gerry LeBlanc - Posted by: Gerry and Linda LeBlanc (Friends) on: Mar 27, 2023
