It was always a pleasure to see Bev at church and having a chat. A quiet unassuming lovely gentleman. A few years back he replaced the clutch on Herb’s tractor. We’re pretty sure the clutch will outlast us by a long shot! Treasure your memories and the love he had for all of you.

We are very sorry for your loss. Bev came down to visit us not long after we moved in to our place on Wray’s corner. He was the example to us all in regards to neighbourly love.
Mark 12:31 – And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
1 John 4:11 – Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
He was kind, gentle and loved the Lord. I know he is truly at peace now. Praying for you all.
