“Beth” died peacefully on December 06, 2022, at Hospice House, Fredericton, NB.

Beth is survived by her stepchildren, Gail (Robert) Tucker of Fredericton, NB and Keith (Pamela) Taylor of Newmarket, ON; six grandchildren and spouses, eleven great-grandchildren.
Beth grew up on a farm near Thornbury, ON, and graduated from Ontario College of Teachers and University of Toronto. Her 41-year teaching career included one-room schools, small town schools, and 27 years in Toronto (East York).
She loved photography, travelling, and card making. Her adventures took her across Canada, United States, Europe, Central and South America, Russia, and South Africa, which included several missions trips.
She married Lloyd Taylor in 1976. On retiring, they moved to Thornbury, ON, and continued to travel the globe and regale their friends, family, and seniors’ groups with stories and pictures of their adventures. In 2005, they moved to Ste Anne’s Court in Fredericton, NB.
In keeping with Beth’s wishes, a memorial and interment will be held in Thornbury, ON in the spring of 2023.
