We are very sad to learn of the passing from this world of a lovely lady, Bev Ross.
Bev loved family, friends, animals, dancing, and travel - especially travel back to her childhood home in the Gaspé. Hope Town, Quebec is nestled next to the Baie des Chaleurs, a stone’s throw from New Brunswick. Bev always looked forward to trips back there in the summer.
Bev had beaten cancer more than once and fought through numerous other health problems over the years, always managing to stay upbeat. Maybe that’s how it is when you’re born in Hope Town. We don’t know details of this last illness, but it seems she had been in hospital for about a month before her death on March 4th.
Pre-deceased in 2007 by her husband Clyde, Bev was a loving mother to Harold, Heather and Glenn, as well as a grand-mother and great-grandmother.
Bev was on Facebook, where she kept in touch with many friends near and far. She will be missed by many at SouthWest United who enjoyed seeing her smiling face at services and events.

“We line danced together for about 20 years,” recalls Helen Pantridge. “Our dancing group took two trips to Cuba.”
On Facebook, she liked to sign off at the end of the day with a “Good night, sleep well with sweet dreams”. We are wishing you the same, Bev.
