Rose Marie Butterworth

RIP Mrs Butterworth
My very first teacher at Annieville when I immigrated from Scotland at 10 yrs old. She was a wonderful teacher and even better person and will never forget meeting her later in life with my own kids in Arizona with her sister Margarita
Condolences to the family. ❤️❤️❤️

RIP Mrs Butterworth! The best teacher anyone could have asked for. I had her for grade 6 at Gray and have never forgotten her. She was funny, unique and helped each one of us with such kindness.
My condolences to the family. 💕

I am so sad to hear of your loss of such a great lady and teacher. My condolences to all her family and friends. I have always kept Mrs Butterworth close in my heart throughout my life as she was a guiding light for me during my elementary years at Annieville and throughout my life. I looked up to her and respected her for her kindness and gentleness during very tumultuous times during those years and she helped formulate the type of person I have become in life. A person with compassion, understanding, patience, gentleness, non-judgmental, down-to-earth, open, helpful, joyful and decent human being who would help anyone in need at any time. She was a true inspiration to myself and so many others to aspire to be the best we could be! Thank-you, Mrs Butterworth, for the brief time we shared. I pray your journey is soft and takes you to the infinite space of infinity on gossamer wings. You are forever in my soul. Merçi, thank-you, Dank U wel. God Bless.

My most sincere condolences on the passing of your dear Mom. I have so very many happy and fond memories of being with your family from the time I was a wee child back in the 1960’s. Weekend gatherings, birthdays, Christmas’ .. Rose Marie was such a sweet, soft spoken and divinely dressed lady, even up until the last time I saw her years ago. The passing of a beloved parent is never a life event that is easy to understand, to accept or to deal with however a life long lived together with her as your Mother, continuing to do what she always loved to do most will warm your heart with fond and cherished memories and no regrets. Much love to you Lynne, Kathleen, John and families and I look forward to offering my hugs in person when I join with you all at her memorial.

Rose Marie and I were schoolmates in New Westminster. We had many good times then , and when she and Bob joined in the fun at the C.N.R. get togethers while they were living in Delta. That was a good number of years ago - time does fly. My condolences to the whole family.

It is hard for me to believe Rosemarie is no longer with us. As her son-in-law, I was blessed to become part of her family. She had work so hard on successfully creating a loving relationship with all of her family, especially her children and her children's children's children. I'll remember her as having such a gentle soul and friendly spirit that made her the favorite Great Grandma amongst her grandkids. As a Christian, I personally find comfort in my faith during times of loss, knowing that she's resting in the loving arms of Jesus. It was a great honor to know her as a Mother in law and friend. My deepest condolences to the family for our loss. She will be greatly missed.

She was the best teacher I ever had by far! I’ll never forget her always telling us she was a dinosaur who had lost her tail when it came to anything about how long she had been a teacher etc .

I was so sad to hear of Mrs. Butterworth passing. She was easily my most favourite teacher at Annieville elementary school. Such a kind soul! My condolences to the family.

Your mom was a well loved teacher at Gray Elementary❤️ Condolences to your family.

She was my grade 6 teacher. I will forever remember her love of Japan and how she taught us about it. She was amazing!
RIP

By far one of the best teachers I have ever had. I loved that she always had a pocket full of candy to those that were good and listened. A great story teller, and we knew how much her family meant to her. She loved them all very much.

Dear Rose Marie was my husband Walte‘s sister-in-law and I always called her that too. I was always very happy to talk to her at events at the Austria Vancouver Club and enjoyed the trips with the Choir of the Alps in Europe together with her sister Margarita and to Kelowna.
With her gentle and friendly ways she accomplished much in her life and it was just a joy to be with her. I will miss her very much and I always will love her. Rest in peace.🙏

Mrs. Butterworth was a lovely person. I remember her son, Bobby. Condolenses to her family and friends.

She was my grade 4&5 teacher. Taught me my love of history.i grew up with Bobby and Kathleen. She was a great person rip

You are already missed. I hope you are finally at peace ❤️
