On September 29, 2024, Beryl Rempel, beloved wife of John Rempel, passed away peacefully at St. Michael’s Health Centre in Lethbridge, AB. Beryl was 80 years of age.

Beryl was born at Barrie, ON. She was raised on the family farm in the Caroline and Clearwater area of Alberta.  In 1962, Beryl married John, and they moved to the Lethbridge area where they raised their three daughters: Helena Smith (Merle), Patrricza Rempel, and Venus Smith (Craig). She had four grandchildren Cody Smith (Samantha Weyland)), Brittney Russell (Adam), Katie Smith (Struan McNair), and Seth Smith.

Beryl worked as a Health Care Aid and Home Care Worker at Extendicare, Edith Cavell, and Lethbridge Family Services for a combined 45 years until her retirement at 70 years of age.

Beryl loved her family and grandchildren and enjoyed spending time camping, fishing, gardening, and listening to music. She was an avid walker and loved spending time walking her fur-babies.

Beryl was pre-deceased by her brother, James Heare, and her parents, Perrin and MaryAnn Heare.

As per Beryl’s wishes, there will only be a private family service. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made in Beryl’s name to the Lethbridge Alzheimer's and Dementia Society of Alberta.

Thank you to the nurses and staff at the St. Michael’s Health Centre Dementia Unit for the wonderful care and attention they provided to our mother. It was appreciated.
