Gladys Beagle nee: Norton, of Arrowwood

Gladys Beagle, formerly of Arrowwood, passed away June 24, 2004 at the Vulcan Community Health Centre at the age of 99.

Gladys was born Dec. 7, 1904 at Minot, N.D. to Paul and Rose Norton.

In 1903, the Norton family moved to Reid Hill. When Gladys was 15 years old, they moved to Arrowwood. She attended and finished her school days at New Arrowwood School where she met Don Beagle.

In 1929 they were married and they moved onto John Culp’s farm. From there they moved to the original Beagle farm on the hill. They rented the land and farmed it for six years. They raised their family of four during the Dirty 30s. During that time Gladys drove the team of horses pulling the democrat while Don spread the grasshopper poison on the crops.

In 1939, they bought and moved onto the Hollenberg farm where they ran a mixed farming operation.

Gladys helped Don drive the school bus. She grew a big garden, canned vegetables and fruit, milked cows and they butchered their own beef and pork. Many Sundays were spent with friends and relatives serving fried chicken and homemade pie. Gladys was a member of the Church of the Brethren Ladies Aid and helped provide for needy families.

In 1971, Gladys and Don retired and moved into Arrowwood. They enjoyed holidays to Alaska, Northwest Territories and Yukon, Europe, Hawaii, several States and a bus trip across Canada.
Don and Gladys were members of the Friendship Club in Arrowwood. She enjoyed playing pool with Lola Roberts and others. Gladys always enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren.

Loving mother of two daughters Marvina Phillips of Innisfail, Myrna (Marvin) Winch of Edmonton, son Ron of Arrowwood, daughter-in-law Frances (Earl) Auvigne of Arrowwood, 16 grandchildren, 38 great-grandchildren, five great-great-grandchildren, a brother Clarence (Dorothy) Norton of Abbotsford, B.C., a sister Florence Sowles of Seattle, Wash., sister-in-law Thelma Beagle of Calgary and numerous nieces and nephews.

Walker, Douglas Leonard
December 31, 1928 - July 5, 2004

It is with deep sadness that the family announce the sudden passing of their husband, dad, papa, brother, uncle and friend at his home in Sylvan Lake on July 5.

Douglas was born at home in Travers, Alta on Dec. 31, 1928 to Fred and Helen Walker.

He began his own trucking business in 1947 and also undertook odd jobs in the late 40s early 50s which brought him to Calgary where he met Paulene Kennay. They were married on June 14, 1952.

He brought his new bride home to Lomond where they built and operated the restaurant "The Blue Willow Inn" until 1954, when they were able to sell the restaurant and began farming on their own.

They raised their three daughters in Lomond and resided there until their semi-retirement in 1995, when they moved to Redwood Meadows. They recently moved to Cochrane in September 2003.

Douglas and Paulene traveled extensively to many parts of the world and were fortunate to enjoy every winter at their home in Phoenix, Ariz., from 1984 to 2004.

Douglas was extremely active in the communities in which he lived, including the raising of the Lomond Community Centre, his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren’s sporting and school activities, senior’s clubs and he was a proud to be a Charter Member (49 years) of the Lomond Lions Club.

Douglas lived his life to the fullest, but his most treasured moments were when he was surrounded by his family. Of all of his life’s accomplishments, his family was the most important one.

Besides his loving wife Paulene, of 52 years, he leaves to cherish his memory three daughters, Paula (Ted) Dietrich of Vulcan, Debbie (Bob) Teolis of Airdrie, Brenda (Richard) Kuryk of Calgary; seven grandchildren Stacey (Kevin) of Duchess, Connie (Troy) of Brooks, Belinda (Jeff) of Calgary, Corinna and Melissa of Airdrie, Tiffany and Austin of Calgary, four great grandchildren Brett and Lacey of Duchess, Cody and Miranda of Brooks. He is also survived by one brother Ron (Delores) Walker and family of Lomond, three sisters-in-law Dorothy (Bob) Haase of Edmonton, Elsie Haughian of Grande Prairie, Kay Kennay of Sunshine Coast, B.C., a cousin Jack (Claire) Walker of Chilliwack B.C., numerous nieces and nephews.

Douglas was predeceased by his parents.

A Celebration of Douglas’ life was held on July 10 at 1:30 p.m. at the Bethany Lutheran Church in Lomond with Pastor Ed Summers officiating.

Linda Diane Whiteside nee: McKay, of Vulcan

With sadness we announce the passing of Linda Diane Whiteside, on July 10, 2004 at the age of 62 years. She left peacefully surrounded by her family.

Linda was born in Vulcan on Jan. 30, 1942 to Bruce and Gwen McKay and the tales she told of growing up on the family farm will be forever cherished by her four grandchildren.

She attended Reid Hill School through Grade 8 and finished senior high school in Vulcan.

Linda then attended the University of Alberta and Calgary General Hospital School of Nursing.

She returned to Vulcan to marry her high school sweetheart, Cody Alexander Whiteside, where they lived, loved and raised their family.

Linda was a woman of passion and energy; she loved music and laughter, farming and family.

Wife, daughter, soulmate, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. Linda enriched and inspired all of us with her courage and wisdom, her passion for life, her dedication and her love. She taught by example. New challenges and new learning were irresistible to her.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.
