Obituary for Elizabeth "Betty" Creaser

Elizabeth "Betty"  Creaser
Elizabeth "Betty" Creaser
March 20, 1927 – July 16, 2017

Peacefully, on Sunday, July 16, 2017, Betty Creaser died at the Grace Hospice in Regina after a short illness. Betty is survived by her son Philip Creaser and daughter-in-law Valerie Paulson; grandchildren Ashley Creaser (Alfredo Young) and Ian Creaser; great-grandchildren Nicholas, Chloe, Emerit, Jaxon and Burke; sister and brother-in-law Marjorie and Fred Greeves and sister-in-law Janice Murray. She was predeceased by her husband Stanley and her brother Allan Murray. Betty was born on the farm near Foxwarren, Manitoba. She was always a strong and independent woman so it isn’t surprising her first job was a nurse at a remote gold mine in Manitoba where she met Stan. Betty and Stan were married on November 17, 1951. Esterhazy, SK was home for 25 years, until retirement when they moved to Clear Lake, Manitoba, spending 10 summers there and wintering in Weslaco, Texas. Living in Brandon from 1997–2009, Betty and Stan then moved to Wintergreene Estates in Regina to be near family. Betty enjoyed cards, needle point, reading and family dinners. She and Stan loved to travel and enjoyed many trips to England, Scotland, France, Belgium, Cuba and Mexico. The family would like to thank the staff of Wintergreene for the respect and kindness they showed Betty and the medical staff of the Pasqua Hospital and Grace Hospice for their compassionate care. Betty was a thoughtful and gracious woman who will be greatly missed by her family. The graveside service will be held on Saturday, September 9, 2017 at 11:30 a.m. in the Veterans' Section of the Brandon Cemetery, with lunch to follow at the Canad Inns. Donations in memory of Betty may be made to a charity of choice.
