Death notice for the town of: Truro, Province: Nova Scotia
I send my deepest condolences to the Kind Generous Wonderful Family of Beverly Julian who shared their love, pictures, generosity and constant updates on the happy days and wonderful stories and troubling days when their mother Beverly was failing in health. I so appreciated them on Facebook those updates and notes to her of love or hope or care. Beverly was the daughter of one of the kindness women, my Aunt Theresa Julian. She too was a great artistisan and crafter as well. My heart is full thinking of each of you having to make your way without your matriarch. Now take care of hearts, your spirit and bodies, and give all your love to each other. Know that she will just seem to be far away, but she can and will see you and hear you. All the best, your cousin Marie Battiste
