    Beverly was raised on the family farm, went to school and
graduated in Alameda. She played hockey, volleyball, curling
and baseball. The first job she had was as a teller in the Royal
Bank in Oxbow. She met and married Elmer Haux and shortly
thereafter they moved to Fort St.John, B.C. and started a family
. George and Leann where born there . They moved back to
Alameda where they eventually ran the cafe and added to their
family with Lonnie and Loriann. They moved to Carnduff when
the cafe closed and after a few years in Carnduff they trans-
ferred to Shaunavon where Leigh was born. Beverly had a few
jobs as a babysitter,  cook in a restaurant, teachers aide , aide
for the disabled, and finally special care aide in the nursing
home. Beverly returned to Alameda to help look after her mother
.

   Beverly enjoyed any excuse for a gathering. She liked to play
cards , watch the grandkids sporting events, cooking and can-
ning preserves, baking, going out with the ladies, travelling in
her earlier years, attending auctions, stopping at the casino, go-
ing to concerts  and just going for ice cream to satisfy her sweet
tooth. 

   The grandchildren where the apple of her eye and any baby
within reach was fair game. There where hugs and kisses for
those willing and not so willing . She just had that way about her.
