January 19, 2024 - Funeral Mass for Sophie Beauchamp

On January 19th, 2024 a funeral mass service was held at St Bonaventure Church at 11am for Sophie Beauchamp. Sophie also had been a member of the CWL at St. Bonaventure. Her husband, Ken Beauchamp was a Past State Deputy from 1985-1987 and  President of  the Alberta Charitable Foundation from 1989- 1992. The Honor Guard was a bit different in that the VSM Willis Winter and Master  Steve Dookie led the CWL down the aisle.

The ceremony was quite touching and the family felt touched  by the event.

Assembly 2853, Blessed Teresa of Calcutta in Olds, held a social meeting in January 2024.  We were blessed with the presence of our Faithful Padre Father Nilo Macapinlac as well as our District Master, Seve Dookie.  Master Steve gave an inspirational talk to the Sir Knights and their Ladies as well as some invite 3rd degree members – who might be attracted to the 4th degree.  Father Nilo was extremely thankful for the works the Knights do. We had a simple meal at a local restaurant and spent a great time in fraternity.
