Beaver: Gerald Joseph
Our dad passed away, peacefully in his sleep on June 20, 2018 at the age of 87. His work here is done but his memory is still strong among his children Terri (Mike), Susan (Tannis), Gerald Scott (Robert), and Richard. He had great affection and respect for his brother Glenn (Lois), their children, and for all the children of his sister Wilma. He is predeceased by his wife Cora (Martin), his mother Frida Beaver, father Joe "Jacket" Hill, sisters Wilma Martin and Doris McNaughton. When we think of our father, we think of all the many sports he loved to watch and play. We remember him out on the land, hunting, cutting wood, farming, or just walking through the bush. He was a carpenter, farmer, and for many years a welder at Massey Ferguson in Brantford. He survived two residential schools and was a strong, strong man. We expect that he's already playing six-hand euchre right now with mum, Bob & Bernice Jamieson, Auntie Rita, and Uncle Raymond. They will hold him precious until we meet again. Resting at Styres Funeral Home, 1798 4th Line, Ohsweken after 4 pm Friday. Evening Service Friday at 7 pm. Funeral service and burial will be held at Grand River United Church, 1585 Mohawk Road, Six Nations on Saturday, June 23, 2018 at 11 am. www.rhbanderson.com
