EILEEN
ALICE BAVERSTOCK
(nee
BUTLER)
February
11, 1934 – September 29, 2013
It is with great sadness that our family
announces the passing of our dear mother and grandmother, Eileen on Sunday,
September 29, 2013 at the age of 79 years.
Eileen is survived by her daughter, Terry
Bachman (Ken); sons Bob (Vicki) and Rick (Krista); grandchildren Michael and
Sharon Baverstock; Ron, Rob, Jackie and Randy Bachman, Nate and Macy
Baverstock; as well as by her sister Muriel Laing; brothers Norman and James
Butler; one niece and several nephews. She was predeceased by her loving
husband of 52 years, Bob; parents Everett and Annie Butler; brothers Albert and
Gordon Butler; sister-in-law Roweena Butler; and nephew Jim Butler.
On February 11, 1934 Eileen was born in
Winnipeg. She spent her early years in Winnipeg and attended Brittania School.
After she finished school, she worked briefly for her brother at Butler
Brothers and then as a secretary for John Irvin and Sons. Eileen married Bob
Baverstock on March 28th, 1953. They raised their first two children in the St.
James area and then moved to Beausejour in 1961, where their third child was
born.
Eileen worked side by side with her husband
Bob, operating the Petro Canada station in Beausejour. After retiring she loved
working in her flower gardens. Eileen was a terrific mother and grandmother,
always putting others before herself. Her husband passed away in November 2005
and it was a loss that affected her deeply. She was diagnosed with Multiple
Myeloma, which ultimately led to her demise. She fought a courageous battle
right to the end.
In compliance with Eileen’s wishes, there
will not be a Funeral Service.
We would like to thank all the ladies at
Concordia Oncology in Winnipeg for their compassionate care of our mother.
Richard
Wojcik of Wojcik’s Funeral Chapel & Crematorium, Beausejour, is in care of arrangements.
