Beryl TIDD Obituary

DAME BERYL JEAN TIDD KDStG and SEAN (State Enrolled Asst. Nurse) February 27, 1927 in Ashford, Kent UK - January 9, 2021 Married to Derek Austin Tidd for 72 years. Immigrated to Canada in April 1957. Mother to Pamela Milroy BSc., ND (Ret'd) (Peter), the late Phillip Tidd, Adrian Tidd (the late Sharon), Steven Tidd (Karen). Grandmother to Jason Tidd (Tara), Holly Nourang (Charlie), Kathleen Milroy, James Milroy (Lisa), Sarah Tidd. Great-Grandmother (Grammie) to Austin, Kaitlyn, Abigail, Ethan, Alex, Oliver, Grace, Marcus and Scarlett. Beryl loved crafts, painting, writing poems and stories and playing cards. She accompanied her husband Derek on his Town Crier events dressed to compliment his uniform with dresses made by herself. She overcame shyness in public in 1995 and became an amateur comedienne writing her own material. To her delight, she had a cameo role in the movie starring her husband about Alzheimer's called "Black Noise". She was interested in politics and was on the Board of Directors for the Reform Party from 1992 up to the present Conservatory Party until she retired in 2006. She was a proud Dame Commander in the Knightly Order of St. George. Beryl supported numerous charities close to her heart. Cremation has occurred. A small family service will take place in Hagersville at R.H.B. Anderson Funeral Home on January 23, 2021. A celebration of life will occur in the future when it becomes allowable due to Covid-19. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the charity of your choice or Mission to Seafarers or the Knightly Order of St. George. She will be sorely missed by family and friends alike. www.rhbanderson.com

My deepest condolences goes out to the Tidd Family. I'm deeply sorry to hear this sad news. My prayers/thoughts are with everyone! I will always remember your Mom and her famous chilli that she made for me going back in the early 80's and of course, her sense of humor! I also loved going to the Canadian Spring Boat Shows with your loving family. Thinking of you Steven and to everyone. Fly high like the angels and shine like the stars, your loving Mother will always remain in each of your hearts. She will be deeply missed. xo

I am so sorry for the loss of Beryl. She was a delight and had the best sense of humour. So many dinners together over the years and even a cruise.
