Sadly, Mom passed away on December 23, 2016 at the age of 94 at Good Samaritans Park Meadows Lethbridge, AB.

Mom will be lovingly remembered by her family, sons Gary (Rosemary) Beal of Winnipeg, MB, and Jeffery (Nancy) Beal of Lethbridge, AB, Grandchildren Lonnie Beal of Slave Lake, Jeffrey (Kimberly) Beal of Calgary, AB, Jud (Vanessa) Beal of Lethbridge, AB, Patrick (Cheryl) Beal of Winnipeg, MB and Justine of Winnipeg, MB, Great-grandchildren Amara, Mia, Dani, Quinn, Declan, Rowan and Isaak.

She will also be remembered by her special nieces Sandra, Leah, Marlene, Lei, Sandy and Delores, nephews Allan, Eric, Irvin, Clifford, Kelly and sister-and-law Olga Lungul.

Mary was the daughter of Georgii and Anna Lungul of the Drobot Parrish region in Saskatchewan. She was predeceased by husbands Frank Beal and Edward Frey, also 14 siblings and other nieces and nephews.

Her life journey included cooking for the HBM&S Electrical linemen's crew, working as a hair dresser and also as a matron for the RCMP. Mom loved to bowl, play shuffleboard and read until her eyesight failed her. Mom loved to cook for her family, the favourites being cabbage rolls, perogies and borscht.

At Mom's request, there will be no funeral; there will be a family Memorial at a later date.

The family would like to thank the staff and volunteers at Good Samaritans Park Meadows Lodge for the loving care she received while enjoying singing her favourite songs to everyone.
