BEVERLY JEANNE LAYE, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend to all, died peacefully on June 6, 2021 at 2:00 A.M. at the Chinook Regional Hospital in Lethbridge.

Bev is lovingly remembered by her son, Kelly Tower and her grandson, Ryan Tower, Myranda Blehm and special family friend, Karen Delanoy; her great-grandchildren, Autumn Lynn, and Jada Lynn Tower and Kaleb Hanser, as well as many more adopted family and friends.

She was predeceased by her husbands, Gordon Frank Tower and Bernard Henry Laye and grandson, Jordon Kelly Tower.

"Grandma Bev", as she was referred to by many, loved everyone and could often be heard regaling to family and friends with humourous memories and facts about life and raising a family. She encouraged everyone, family and friends alike, to be loving, supportive, and positive. Bev had a big beautiful heart which was contagious to everyone around her. She was a truly gracious and caring woman and was loved by many far and wide. Bev loved life, family, and the beauty of the world around her and she made friends everywhere she went. She had a way of making people feel loved and wanted, even complete strangers. Bev accepted everyone and loved and appreciated anyone who looked out for her family and close friends.

Due to COVID restrictions, a Celebration of Life Ceremony will be announced at a later date.

The Celebration will be keeping with the friendly, optimistic and easy way she lived and loved. It will be a casual affair and we will make time for anyone who would like to say a few words.

"Those we love don't go away.

They walk beside us every day.

Unseen, unheard, but always nearby.

So loved, so missed, so very dear."
