HALLE , Beatrice (Senecal)

It is with great sadness that the family announces the death of Beatrice (Bea) Halle. Beloved wife of Cleo Halle for 64 years. Mother of Barbara Boston (deceased, Portland) Arthur of Victoria, David of Sault Ste. Marie and Sandra O'Leary of Victoria. Bea was a wife, mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to many. Bea born in the Soo married and raised her children there with her husband Cleo. Upon retirement many years were spent living in Hawaii where Bea volunteered for various charities. Bea soon became well known as the pretty blonde with the quick wit. Bea and Cleo returned to Victoria B.C. in 1996 to be closer to family and once again Bea's quick wit had friends saving her favourite seat in various bingo halls. The family extends their thanks to the staff at Royal Jubilee Hospital for their sensitivity and compassion during this difficult time. A celebration of Bea's life will be held in the Recreation Room on Chown Place in Victoria, June 25, 2006 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in Bea's memory can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
