MAXINE GAYLE BEATTY
MAY 26, 1949 – DECEMBER 19, 2024

It is with heavy hearts that we announce her sudden passing on December 19, 2024 at the age of 75 years old, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Maxine was born May 26, 1949 to Reg & Ruth Beatty in Carlyle, Saskatchewan. She attended both elementary and High School in Carlyle. Following graduation, she followed her dreams to Psychiatric Nursing in Weyburn, Saskatchewan, soon to find out this wasn’t a career for her and with that she was Manitoba bound. She settled in Winnipeg, and it was here that she found her calling in Bank of Montreal, she found her niche as an Auditor or “Bank Inspector her Mom would proudly say”, then Branch Manager at various locations in Winnipeg till her retirement in 2005 at the young age of 55 years old.

Maxine learned early in life the values of hard work, independence, loyalty and honesty and with these core values she flourished in every aspect in her life.

Many friends made over her lifetime be it on the fairways, curling rinks, ball diamonds, sailing ships, sandy beaches and of course the various BMO branches she worked at, were all very important in Maxine’s life.

She kept her circle small, if you were in it you knew, in her retirement years she found fellowship in the Army & Navy where a few beers were flung, and meat draws won.

Special thanks to her closest friend Adele and neighbors who checked in on her over the years.

Maxine was predeceased by her parents Reg & Ruth Beatty, her brother Barry Beatty and her beloved babies Looney & Dakota.
She is survived by her only sister, Judy McArthur, nieces and nephews: Jeri-Lyn McArthur (Edge), Juanita McArthur-Big Eagle (Jay), Dawn Hayden (Jason), Marcie McArthur-Stevenson (Tony), Nathan McArthur (Missy), Farrah McArthur (Brad), Topasannah Heuchert (Tyler), Eagle McArthur, Warren Beatty, Tracey Schoettle, and her beloved fur baby, Mysti.

Cremation has taken place, and no formal service will be held as per her request.

Anyone wanting to honor Maxine, can do so by donating to The Winnipeg Humane Society or Siloam Mission.

“May the Fairways be plush and green, the sun shines day and night and the beers ice cold and plentiful”
Till we meet again.
Rest in Peace
