Peacefully at Northumberland Hills Hospital in Cobourg on Friday, December 17th, 2021, Francis Beverley (Bev) Rollings at 91 years of age.
Bev was engaged to Marie Robson who passed away just a week previously. Marie last saw Bev when he was in the ICU on the 9th of December - they held hands and Marie passed away later that night. Their story is one of love and commitment over a 55 year period.
Loving brother to the late Bill Rollings (Shirley) and also loving brother to Sandra (Allen). Cherished uncle to Greg, Brenda, Rhonda, and Kim. Great Uncle to Jeffery, Roger, and Stephanie. Great great uncle to Elijah, Xavier, Allison, and Elizabeth. Beloved son to the late Edward and Audrey Rollings.
Bill and Bev always loved to joke about Sandra being their older sister because they were all born on February 13th as Sandra being the youngest. Bev had a love for his golf. He was also in the Legion Trumpet Band, he played a pretty good horn. He worked at Curtis Products for a number of years.
We will remember Bev for his many jokes and he always had a sharp answer for everything. He will be missed by all. Cremation to take place. A graveside service will take place on Thursday, December 23rd, 2021 at Cobourg Union Cemetery. Those wishing may make a memorial donation to SickKids Foundation.

Hello, Four months ago I moved next door to Marie Robson at St. Mark's Maples Court and was welcomed warmly by Marie and Bev which I appreciated very much. It gave me a great sense of delight to walk by and chat as I saw them together on the porch in the sunlight with a twinkle in their eye for each other.
