McBEAN,
Mabel
Irene (née
GAUTHIER)
Died peacefully with her family on March 8, 2008 in London, Ontario,
at the age of 94, predeceased by her husband of 61 years, Wilfred
Parker McBEAN (1996.) Her three sons and their wives, Doctor Robert
and Marilyn
McBEAN of Overland Park, Kansas, Doctor Gordon and Patricia
McBEAN of London, Ontario, and Doctor Edward and Leslie
McBEAN of
Waterloo, Ontario, survive Mabel. Her family also includes eight
grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren in British Columbia,
Ontario, Oregon, Kansas, and North Carolina. Born in Zealandia,
Saskatchewan, on March 28, 1913, daughter of Joseph Thomas Alexander
("Sandy") and Mabel (née
CAIRNS)
GAUTHIER,
Mabel grew up in Chilliwack,
British Columbia, where she married Parker on October 9, 1935.
Her sisters, Alfreda, Grace, and Elva, and her brothers, Cairns,
and Almon predeceased her. The rest of her life would see longtime
residence in Vancouver with later years spent with Parker in
Chilliwack. Mabel and Parker wintered for twenty years at Trailer
Village in Mesa, Arizona, where both of them were the life of
many parties and activities. After Parker's passing, Mabel made
her home in the Central Park Lodge in Toronto and then moved
to London, Ontario, residing at Chelsey Park Retirement Community
and then Extendicare nursing home. Wherever she lived, Mabel
attended services as a lifelong member of the United Church.
While she and Parker raised their three sons, Parker was an expert
cabinetmaker and she owned and operated a ladies wear store in
Vancouver. She loved to play cards, sing, dance, play the organ,
swim, do crossword puzzles, and travel the world with Parker.
Ultimately, what defined Mabel was her compassion and committed
love for her family and the many Friends Mabel and Parker made
everywhere they went. Her family was blessed beyond measure to
have had her for a Mother, Grandma, and Nana. Mabel's family
wishes to extend a special thank you to the staff and residents
at Extendicare London for the great care she received and the
sense of love of an extended family. The family requests that,
in lieu of flowers, donations be made toward Alzheimer's research,
you for being you. We will always love you. (www.harrisfuneralhome.ca)
