BOYES, Elizabeth

(Hicken, Merry)

January 1, 1924 - June 13, 2009. Beloved wife of James (Harkie), Betty passed away peacefully at Bethany Care Centre in Calgary. Betty and Harkie came together in 1994 and had a wonderful life until illness struck her. She is survived by three children, four stepchildren, numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Betty spent many years in the Ocean Park / White Rock area, best known perhaps through her fabric store, Merry's Fabrics as well as her work with the Ladies Auxiliary of Crescent Beach Legion 240

Throughout this difficult time, many Angels on Earth came into Betty's life and the family is extremely grateful for their love and support. We admire Betty's decision to donate to the U of C and know that many people will benefit. At the family request, there will be no Memorial Service. Donations may be made to Bethany Care Centre, Calgary or The Alheimer's Society of Alberta. To email - expressions of sympathy: donnakcollins@yahoo.ca
