Barbara E. Beattie
1929-2025
We are heartbroken by the loss of our mother and grandmother, Barbara
“Barb” Beattie who passed away quietly with her family by
her side on January 14, 2025, at the Hotel-Dieu of St Joseph, Perth
Andover, NB.
Barb is survived by her daughters, Vicki (Gary) Keenan, Woodstock,
Cathy (Harold) Oakes, Centreville, Nancy (Mark) Keenan, Mactaquac,
Barbie (Robert) McIntosh, Gordonsville; Grandchildren, Anthony (Jodi)
Keenan, Amanda Keenan, Courtney (Courtenay) Keenan, Jared (Jackie)
Oakes, Janelle (Shawn) Tucker, Angela (Bill) Taylor, Timothy (Erin)
Keenan, Mallory (Chris) McIntosh; Great grandchildren, Avery, Shelby,
Aubrie, Poppy, Sonny, Maysen, Max, Adalynn, Hailey, Tristan, Kiele,
Kade, Michael and Andrew; sister, Mary-Ann Peters, as well as several
nieces, nephews and friends.
Barb was born June 15th, 1929, to the late Stanley & Eva
(Kilpratrick) Green of Centreville. She was predeceased by her mother
who passed when Barb was just ten days old, her father, stepmother
Gladys (Kennedy)Green, the love of her life Victor, as well as many
brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.
Barb had many loves but none that compared to her love of Victor, her
children and their families. Her grandchildren became the center of
her world until the great grandchildren arrived. Her face would light
up just talking about how beautiful they all were. She loved to play
cards with her friends on a regular basis, but nothing would get in
the way of her and dancing. If there was a dance being held, you
would always find her on the dance floor with Victor, cutting a
rug.
Barb will be remembered for her love of cooking. You could always
find her whipping up a delicious meal or dessert to share with family,
friends, and many in the community. She was in fact the world’s
best biscuit maker, and you will not be able to tell her grandchildren
otherwise.
Barb will be best remembered for her sense of humour. She and Victor
loved to laugh. Together on their beloved bus trips, Victor in the
back making the ladies laugh and Barb at the front telling one of her
many jokes. People flocked to be around them because you couldn’t
help but feel wonderful after any interaction. Barb really believed
that, “happiness is like jam. You can’t spread even a little
without getting some on yourself.”
Barb’s family would like to extend their sincere thanks and
appreciation to Dr. Marco and to the exceptional staff of the Upper
River Valley Hospital & Hotel-Dieu of St Joseph for the wonderful
care during her stay there.
