The family of Elizabeth are very sad to announce her passing on February 20, 2018 at Royal Columbian Hospital at the age of 85. Betty arrived on the Canadian shores with her husband Jimmy and young son Ian in 1955. They settled in Vancouver and lived there until 1998, when they relocated to New Westminster. She worked up until her retirement for the Dept. of Veterans Affairs at Shaughnessy Hospital. Elizabeth is survived by her children Ian (Maria), Gail (John), Margaret and Malcolm; her adored 8 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. We wish to send a special thanks to the doctors and nurses in the ICU at Royal Columbian Hospital for the care of our mum.  There will be no service as were her wishes, but there will be a tea on March 3, 2018 at Kearney’s Columbia-Bowell Chapel at 219 6th Street, New Westminster, BC. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to BC Children’s Hospital www.bcchf.ca and the Heart and Stroke Foundation www.heartandstroke.ca
