BEAUREGARD Jerry Paul We are saddened to announce the passing of Jerry Beauregard on August 6th, 2013 in Vernon Hospice House. He will be sadly missed by Michelle and Kerry. We are very grateful to the staff at Hospice House and Dr. Humphreys and the staff at the Vernon Cancer Clinic for their kindness, care and compassion. Jerry was a devoted teacher for 36 years, sharing his love of the outdoors with all whose lives he touched. He celebrated life to the fullest every day and, at his request, there will be no service. Donations may be made to the Vernon Hospice House, 350627th Avenue, Vernon, BC V1T 1S4. Jerry’s legacy can be summed up by this quote of Ralph Emerson: “To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived – this is to have succeeded.” Arrangements have been entrusted to Pleasant Valley Funeral Home.
