Peace River Betty Fern Root (Ashmore) passed away on January 7th, 2017 in the Sutherland Place Continuing Care facility in Peace River, Alberta where she had resided for the past eight years. Betty will be lovingly remembered by her son Stuart (Denise) Root, grandchildren Raelene (Rob) Marceau, Cheryl (Chris) Sandstra and Heather Coldwell, as well as her great grandchildren: Arden and Jacob Marceau and Vaughn and Shea Sandstra. Her sister Fay Poch, brothers-in-law Walter Rhodes, Jim Culham and numerous nieces and nephews also survive her. She is predeceased by her loving husband John (Jack) Root, her parents Ted and Juanita Ashmore, her siblings June Rhodes, Shirley Culham, Richard (Dick) Ashmore and grandson-in-law Lee Coldwell. Betty was born in Champion, Alberta on September 9th, 1927, where she was raised until she married her husband Jack on January 18, 1947. The young couple moved to Coleman, AB where her son Stuart was born. They resided in the community until a retirement transition took them to the neighboring town of Blairmore, Alberta. Betty loved music, singing and playing the piano. She was an avid gardener, loving her flowers almost as much as the family dog, King. Her grandchildren fondly remember when she would come to visit in Peace River, bringing a carload of costume jewelry, chocolate chip cookies and banana muffins to share. In her later years, Betty moved to Sutherland Place to be closer to family in Peace River. Betty subsequently developed dementia, which robbed her of recent memory, yet, transported her back to a time where still had her beloved husband, Jack. It was during this time, that her sense of humor, wittiness and an ability to deliver ‘the best one-liners’ became evident and entertained those who spoke with her. In keeping with Betty’s wishes, a celebration of life will occur this coming summer – while the sun is shining and the flowers are in bloom. In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation can be made in Betty’s name to Sutherland Continuing Care.
