Edward Curtis Beeson was born August 21, 1936 at Gull Lake, Saskatchewan, where he grew up on the family farm.
As a young man he joined the navy for a short time and served on both coasts of Canada. He later came to Biggar looking for work as a barber, he never left.  He met and married Evonne June Wright and they bought the McLaren block building. Together they opened Biggar Flower and Gift Shop, including the attached barber shop where Edward worked.  Edward was very active with many community boards and organizations, and was an elder with the Presbyterian Church where he often led services. He loved to play the piano, paint, sketch, and was involved in many theatre productions in Biggar and Asquith.  As a couple Edward and Evonne loved spending time at their cabin at Cochin, and would go fishing as often as possible. Edward passed away July 23, 2024 at Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon surrounded by his family. Evonne has been waiting for Edward, they are once again together fishing, we know the lake will be calm, they are laughing and getting a lot of bites.
Edward is survived by his children David (Michelle), Doug (Jackie); his grandchildren Renee, Michael, Aaron.
A private family service will be held for Edward. In lieu of flowers please send donations to Biggar Long Term Care Facility.
Arrangements entrusted to Gerein Funeral Service.
