Belle was born in Roland, Manitoba on April 28, 1918 and moved to Winnipeg, where she grew up in Elmwood. She married Daniel Coote in May 1943.

On Dan's retirement, they both volunteered with Meals-On-Wheels for over 10 years. They enjoyed winter vacations in Hawaii, Mexico and Arizona. Belle leaves to mourn her only surviving son Bob (Linda) of Winnipeg, daughter-in-law Lori (London, Ontario) and her two beloved grandsons, Rob of Edmonton and Jeff of Winnipeg. She also leaves to mourn one sister Ada McCallum, brother-in-law Al Coote and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband Daniel in 2004, son Daniel Jr. in 2004, her parents Edith and Martin as well as five sisters and two brothers.
