We enjoyed reminiscing with Bev about "the good old days" at Somerville Industries. Bev leaves behind wonderful memories and he will be greatly missed.
Dora worked at the RCMP Headquarters in London and found Bev always to be a very pleasant and helpful person. Bev's demeanour and smile was always evident no matter what. Bev and Tony sat side by side attending the Commissionaires meetings. Always friendly and we had lots of laughs concerning a number of topics. Rest In Peace my fellow man. You will always be remembered Bev. Wish all people had some of your personality traits.
