Peacefully, on the morning of June 17, 2023, at Bethany Meadows in Camrose, Alberta, Pearl Weir (nee Bauer) went to be with our Lord.

Pearl was born March 6, 1923, at Shevlin, Manitoba to Henry and Louisa Bauer.  She was the last remaining sibling of the 11 Bauer siblings.   She was also predeceased by her husband, Oscar of 62 years, on April 3, 2005.  She will be sadly missed by her children, Ruth, Richard (Myrna), Carol (John), Beverly (Roy), Douglas (Pat), Roland (Beni) and Lisa (Shaun) and her precious 17 grandchildren, 33 great grandchildren and 7 great, great grandchildren.

As a family, we have many fond memories.  Just recently, we gathered to help celebrate her 100th birthday this past March. Unfortunately, she fell and broke her hip a week before her birthday but that didn't stop her from overcoming the surgery and coming out of the hospital for a few hours to celebrate with us.

Mom was a hard worker all her life - helping Dad on the farm while raising 7 children, cleaning people's houses, cutting people’s hedges and lawns, and gardening - which she loved.  She was always there to give a helping hand.  She always had a big garden which her grandchildren loved to raid for peas and raspberries every summer.  You could count on her always having her special dishes such as borscht, cabbage buns or potato pancakes planned for our visits.

Mom was always very involved in her church wherever she lived, Inglis, Russell, Roblin or Togo.  Her Christian life was very important to her.

We would like to thank the staff of Rosealta Lodge and Bethany Meadows in Camrose, Alberta for the kind and special care they gave our mom over the past several years.

If you wish, memorial gifts to honour Pearl could be given to the Bethany Group in Camrose, Alberta.  Online – thebethanygroup.ca under Donate or by mail to The Bethany Group, 4612 53rd St, Camrose, Alberta T4V 1Y6.

A graveside service will be held on July 29, 2023, at 1 p.m. at Roblin District Cemetery.
