Our mother died on Wednesday, September 29, 2021 at the age of 97 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. Beryl was born on October 15 1923, the second of four children born to the late Noel Hamlyn DeBlois and Gerda Clairmont Taylor. Born and raised on Water Street in Charlottetown, Beryl attended West Kent Elementary School and then spent three happy years at Netherwood School for Girls in Rothesay, New Brunswick. Following graduation in 1940 she enrolled at Prince of Wales College back on the Island. Beryl played an excellent tennis game and was a regular in the Eastern Canadian tennis tournaments. Mum excelled at badminton and horseback riding, too; as sister Audrey commented while admiring a photo of her astride a horse at Netherwood, “Beryl sits a horse well!” She interrupted her studies to join the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service (the “Wrens”) in 1943 and was stationed in Greenock, Scotland, during the last two years of World War II. Demobilized in 1946, Beryl attended McGill University in Montreal, played on the McGill Varsity tennis team, and graduated with a degree in Commerce in 1949.

Beryl married F. Clarke Fraser in December 1948, and had four children with him: Norah, Noel (Pat), Alan, and Scott (Tasha). She was proud grandmother to their seven children: Trevor (Marcelle), Emmett (Justine), Gillian, Masha, Alexander, and Ogden; and four great-grandchildren: Eliot, Cohen, Finnegan, and Kipling. Survived by sisters Audrey Volesky and Norah Henry. She was predeceased by brother Thomas D. DeBlois (Mary), daughter-in-law Jelena, granddaughter Megan, and brothers-in-law Jan Volesky and Dr. John Henry.

After their divorce in 1973, Beryl returned to her alma mater this time as an administrative coordinator in McGill’s Dentistry School where she worked until retiring in 1989. She was a regular at the Shawbridge Ski Club and the Montreal West Tennis Club, and served many years on the executive of the Montreal Field Naturalists Club. Beryl was an excellent seamstress, sewing many of her and her children’s clothes, and knitted sweaters and mittens for all the kids. She served on the Women’s Auxiliary of the Montreal Children’s Hospital (and held the Treasurer’s position for some years), the WA of St. Thomas’ Anglican Church in Montreal, and was a Brown Owl (the adult leader) for the Montreal West Brownies. An avid reader, birder and cross-country skier, Beryl also excelled at bridge and mah-jong. She came home to the Island for good in 2001 and eventually moved to Andrews of Stratford (2008 – 2016) and then to Whisperwood Villa Nursing Home.

Beryl was a true Islander and came home for summers at Keppoch just about every year she lived on the mainland. She brought her children and grandchildren and their families to Keppoch too, and they still feel connected to the Island and are part of the Keppoch community. The cottage at Cherry Corner was that “home away from home” she especially enjoyed in her later years when hosting family and friends from away.

The family is deeply grateful to the staff at Whisperwood Villa, where Beryl received excellent, loving care throughout her stay but especially over the past 19 months of the pandemic.

It is with sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Barbara Graham Rogers in her 95th year. Barbara (beloved Auntie Baba to all) lived at Beach Grove Nursing Home in Harbour View where she was beautifully cared for in her final years. Barbara adored her brothers, the late Peter Rogers (Jessie deceased) and the late Charles Rogers (Joyce, of Ottawa ON). Auntie Baba is survived by niece Martha (the late James McGrane) of NC and her sons Kevin and Andrew, nephew David (Lynne) of Stowe, VT and their children, Graham and Brittany, as well as niece Anne (Peter Magee) of Invermere, BC and her children, Amy and Will.

Barbara was cherished by her Charlottetown family Patricia Preston (the late Aggey Vakselis) and her older sister Peggy (the late Arthur Holland & the late Charles Williams) Williams along with her daughters Susan Holland, Bethany Holland (Barbara’s devoted Partner in Care), Mary (Les) Holland-Bonnett and their sons, Pearson and Nicholas of Conover, NC, and Bethany’s daughters Hannah (daughter Luna), Grace, and Maeve. Barbara was predeceased by her parents Graham and Amy (Ellis) Rogers.

Auntie Baba was born in Summerside, PEI on February 7, 1927, and as a young person, moved with her family to Charlottetown. Her lifetime career was dedicated to Canada Permanent Trust Company, eventually TD Canada Trust. She had a beautiful soprano voice and was a devoted member of the choir of the Kirk of Saint James, as well as an alumna of the original Charlottetown Little Theatre Group, and the PEI Welsh Society.

Barbara was an avid knitter, making baby blankets, mittens, and hats for all – a tribute to her involvement with the Dorcas group. She enjoyed classical music and her astronomy club, where she took pleasure in the wonders of the night sky, sighting many eclipses.

Resting at MacLean Funeral Home Swan Chapel from where a private family service will be held on Wednesday, September 29. Interment in the Sherwood Cemetery. To honour Barbara’s memory and charitable spirit, please conduct a random act of kindness such as spending some time with a senior and listening to their stories.
