Margaret Bean Obituary
1950-2022
Margaret died in Brooks, Alberta on July 31 following a lengthy period of ill health. She was predeceased by her parents, Dr David M Bean and Frances L Powell, RN, and is survived by her brothers David (Monica Mannerström) in West Vancouver, BC, and John (Sandra Eddy), and numerous nieces and nephews. Margaret was born in Toronto and grew up in Kitchener, Ontario. She obtained a BA degree from McGill University in Montreal and then studied speech therapy at the London School of Speech & Drama, England. Upon her return to Canada, she joined Alberta Health Services in Drumheller. To improve her skills Margaret took leave to obtain a Master's degree in speech language pathology from Minot State University in North Dakota and then joined the Community Health Centre in Vegreville, AB where she assisted people with their speech problems until her retirement. Margaret enjoyed travelling, writing, drawing, and helping children as a primary school volunteer. She was fond of all creatures, particularly her dogs, and had many beloved friends across Canada and abroad.

This is a sad read. I knew Margaret in public school. She was smart, interesting, and a great person.
