Whitney Pier
It is with broken hearts and profound sadness that we, the family, regret to announce the unexpected passing of our dear mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and wife, Beverly Ann Muise, age 78, on Friday, September 18, 2020, at home.
Born in Sydney on May 19, 1942, Beverly was the daughter of the late Cecil and Evelyn (Lively) French.
Beverly was a loving wife; the greatest mother and she cherished her grandchildren and great-grandchildren – they were “The Apple of her Eye!” Beverly was devoted to her family and her faith. She will forever be remembered for her gift of baking, especially pies. To receive one of Bev’s special pies was to receive her endless love as she prided herself in making everyone around her smile by sharing her baking talents. In her humble way, she always knew how to connect with others lovingly, with kindness, in a non-judgmental way. Beverly had a special gift for making you feel as though she understood what you were going through, no matter the circumstances. When Bev wasn’t caring for others or baking, she could always be found with a good book in her hands or doing jigsaw puzzles and sudoku.
Beverly is survived by her loving husband of almost 60 years, Elmer; children, Peter Muise, Yarmouth, Rhonda (Adrian) Langlois, Sydney, Lesa (Tony) Conrad, Lower Sackville; grandchildren, Jeremy, Laurie, Corey, Evan, Brandon and Kaitlyn; great-grandchildren, Kiersten, Brody, Mason, Sean, Sawyer and Bentley; siblings, Germaine (Kenny) McLeod, Debbie (late Jack) Lessie and David (Mary) French and sister-in-law, Annette French; as well as many brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, Bev was predeceased by siblings, Johnnie, Bobby, Terry, Eddie, Ronnie and Peggy.
Funeral Mass will be celebrated at Holy Redeemer Church on Thursday, September 24, 2020 at 10 a.m. with Fr. Paul Murphy officiating. Interment will take place in New Calvary Cemetery, Whitney Pier. Due to Covid-19, masks and social distancing are required in church.
Donations in memory of Bev Muise may be made to Holy Redeemer Cemetery Fund or a charity of one’s choice.
Funeral arrangements are entrusted to the care and direction of Pier Community Funeral Home.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of MUISE Beverly ‘Bev’ Ann 2020..
