BEVERLY MAE RAWLUK May 3, 1969 - February 17, 2011 With much sadness, we announce the sudden loss of our beloved wife, daughter, sister, aunt and friend, Beverly Mae Rawluk (nee Wiebe), on Thursday, February 17, 2011 at the age of 41 years. Bev will be sadly missed by her husband, Steven Rawluk; her parents, Harold and Irene Wiebe; her siblings, Greg Wiebe, Phil Wiebe (Val), Sandra Wiuff (John) and Reg Wiebe (Sylvia); her nieces and nephews, Josh (Stacy), Riley, Colby, Travis, Graham, Jeremy (Cassie), Mitchell (Libby), Megan, Ryan and Dylan. Bev will also be lovingly remembered by her in-laws, Sam and Joanne Rawluk, Kathy (Gene) Price, Tom Rawluk (Carol), Nancy Price, Jody McPherson (Andrew) and Denise Briscoe (Andrew); her nieces and nephews, Colten, Catherine, Crystal, Kalder and Gina. Bev was born and raised on a farm outside of Morden. She graduated from Morden Collegiate Institute before studying theology at Gardner Bible College, receiving a Bachelor of Theology. Bev continued to study and earned a Masters of Divinity in Regina. Bev became a gifted and loving teacher. She excelled at everything she did, including her work as a youth pastor, teaching at Gardner College as well as RRCC in Winkler and Gypsumville School. Bev's calm and structured approach nurtured and inspired. She earned enormous respect from students and colleagues alike. Gypsumville was blessed to call Bev their own after she married Steve in 2005. Though their time together was much too short, they shared an enviable love based in honesty; humour; a fierce and shared work ethic; as well as a deep, abiding faith in God. Together, Bev and Steve worked side by side on the farm. She took great pride in landscaping, gardening and beautifying their home. Bev loved being Steve's wife; best friend; snowmobiling partner and motorcycle chic. She devoted herself completely to her marriage and created a warm and loving space for them to enjoy each and every day. The family would like to thank the medical and hospital staff at Lakeshore General Hospital and Health Sciences Centre for their care.
