Heaven has gained another angel. It is with deep sorrow and immense love, that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, Beatrice Margaret Woods, at the Western Long-Term Palliative Care Unit on July 15, 2025 at the age of 77 years. Beatrice was surrounded by love as her life's journey ended and she slipped quietly away from us, into the arms of Jesus. Beatrice leaves to mourn with fond and loving memories, her daughters: Darlene (Quinton), Michelle (Richard), and Trudy (Eric); her only son: Benny (Jessica); grandchildren: Erica, Kayla, Richard Jr., Bo, Johnathon, Sabrina, Christopher, Dylan, Terri, Mitchell, and Brooklynn; 17 great-grandchildren; brothers: Junior (Loretta), Brian (Dianne), Gary (Angie), and Carl; sisters: Maude (Don), Bonnie (Ernie), Cora (Don), Audrey (Hilary), and Sharon; as well as a large circle or nieces, nephews, other relatives, and many friends.
