THELMA ELIZABETH (BETTY) BELL
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother and grandmother, Betty Bell, at the age of 89 years on November lst, 2021.
Betty will lovingly be remembered and greatly missed by her son, Scott, and daughter in law, Lisa; two grandchildren, Brady DeLuca (Hillary) and Jaime DeLuca (Marlis); brother Bob Allen (Yvonne); sister Catherine Wiseman (Bruce); many nieces and nephews, their families and many friends.
Betty was born in The Pas and raised in Neepawa. She moved to Winnipeg and met Bob, the love of her life. They were married July 17th,1954, and were inseparable for 64 years until Bob passed in 2019.
They lived on Winnipeg Avenue for over 60 years. Betty chose to not work outside of the home once Scott was born and became a professional homemaker. She devoted her time to her husband, family and friends.
In Betty’s younger years, she participated in curling, golfing and enjoyed camping with family and friends. Above all, she loved her veranda on Winnipeg Avenue where numerous hours were spent playing games, watching TV, entertaining and touching base with neighbours. Betty was always the ultimate people person and was often the life of the party.
Because of the close proximity to HSC, she offered compassion and her home to many friends and family who were receiving treatment at HSC. She enjoyed supporting Ronald McDonald House through donations of homemade knitting,
Many thanks to the staff at Holy Family Home for their care and compassion over the last several years.
As per Betty’s wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no formal funeral service.
In lieu of flowers, those so wishing may make contributions to a charity of choice.
Always loved, always remembered.
