BEATON, Melanie (nee Keeling) 1969-2023
Our hearts and all of my family’s hearts are broken. Our beautiful daughter, Melanie, passed away suddenly on Friday, April 7th, 2023, the day after her 54th birthday. We are all in complete shock as we try to wrap our heads around this devastating reality. She passed away quickly and did not suffer, thankfully. She leaves a giant, gaping hole in the lives of her parents David and Dianne Keeling and her husband Dwight. Her beloved pets Foxy, Patches and Stevie Nicks are lost without her, as well as her brothers, Mike (Rae) and Darren (Lesley), her nieces and nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, her mother-in-law, Bernice Beaton and all of our extended family… and oh-so many friends. She was our glue and she will be missed beyond imagination. Hug your loved ones tight – this is a reminder that tomorrow is never promised. Put on a Stevie Nicks song and raise a glass to our beloved Melanie. In honouring Melanie’s wishes cremation has taken place. Donations can be made to Beamsville 4 Paws Rescue or Urban Wildlife Rescue (located in Grimsby). Arrangements entrusted to Considerate Cremation & Burial Services, 26 Nihan Drive, St. Catharines (between Lake Street & Scott Street), 289-362-1144. Online condolences may be made at CCBSCares.ca
