Erica Sue Beauchamp (nee Anderson) at 77 years young. Beloved wife of Doug Beauchamp for 56 glorious years. Dearly loved Mum of Fleur Storms (Rick), and Melanie Cameron (Kevin). Best Gramma to Jaxon and Kaia Cameron, and Nick Szigeti and Aaron Storms. Also loved by her Step-Grands Melissa O’Toole (Tyson), Richard Storms (Courtnie), and Jordan Burton (Alisha).
Predeceased by her parents, Lloyd and Joan Anderson, and her brother Brian Anderson. Survived by her brothers Neil Anderson, Doug Anderson and Bruce Anderson (Debbie), as well as her brother-in-law Tom Beauchamp (Judy), and sister-in-law Christine Scott (Doug). Also remembered by her nephews and nieces.
A bowler, a curler, a track star in high school, a camper, a Brownie Leader and District Commissioner of Girl Guides, a block parent, a blood donor, a sorority sister, a volunteer at the school, a volunteer at the hospital, a volunteer at the church… Mum was all about community, and was a dear friend to many. A world traveler and expert planner of trips enjoyed by her and Dad – their favorite being cruising the many waters across six continents. Mum was a kind and nurturing soul. She was always our biggest cheerleader. She had a heart of gold, a beautiful smile, and she was fiercely proud of her family – which is how we will remember her best.
We love you Mum, and will miss you forever.
Sincere thanks to Northumberland Hills Hospital and the Palliative Care Team for their care and compassion in Mum’s final days.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Erica’s memory can be made to St. Peter’s Church, Cobourg.

So sorry for your loss Doug, Melanie, Fleure and your families.
On behalf of Theresa and I, we would like to send our condolences to the Beauchamp families.
We were so sorry to hear about Erica from our mutual friends Frank and Christine. We remember "bumping into" Erica and Doug on a cruise a few years ago, can't remember where we were, but right away our times reminiscing life in Cobourg took off and we did so enjoy their company. That led to Erica and I staying in touch from time to time on Facebook with news and humour.
Doug and family - I was so saddened to hear this news, and know that you are in my thoughts.
Erica was such a friendly and positive person. I have known her thru Sorority for years and always enjoyed her company. Chris
Doug & Family: Tom and I are so very sorry to hear of Erica’s passing. We remember her fondly. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Debby & Tom

Our deapest condolences. Erica was so dedicated to St Peter's. And she battled her illness so valiantly. She will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Dennis and Denise
I was saddened to hear of Erica’s passing. We were childhood friends from the age of 12 through high school. She was smart, funny, gifted at languages, a natural leader and much more athletic than I was. Our paths diverged after graduation but I still thought of her as a friend. So many happy memories. She has been blessed with a lovely family and has done amazing things. My condolences to all of you.

Wayne and I are deeply saddened to hear of Erica’s passing. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. Wayne and Nancy Brohman
Melanie : Condolences on the passing of Your Mum. The death of a parent is typically a milestone along one's road of life, a time for reflection in the coming days, weeks, months, and years. Typically there is a void or emptiness, questions and conversations for her that can no longer be asked , answered or occur. I will be out of town and regrettably will not be able to attend the visitation or the funeral but will certainly be thinking about you. Please pass along my condolences to the rest of the Family
Doug, we are very sorry to hear about Erica’s passing. Our thoughts are with you and your family at this sad time.
My sincere condolences to Doug and his families. God bless ,rest in peace .
Mel, Kevin and family, so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing, cherish the precious memories!
Erica is a kind soul who lives on in the lives she has touched. She was always friendly and helpful. Whenever I spoke with her, I felt she was genuinely listening and caring. Erica will be missed but I wish her freedom from illness and joy in the arms of our Creator. My prayers for Doug and their family and friends is that memories will be of comfort and an awareness that Erica is still with them in their hearts, thoughts and deeds. May those around you hold you close and walk through this rough time together.
I will always remember and be grateful for Erica’s welcoming and warm presence at St Peters Church. Sending much love to her family.
Our very deepest sympathies to Doug and family.
