BEIMLER Gene

GENE LYLE BEIMLER, of Cardston, passed away March 3 2014 at the age of 83 years. Gene was born in Cardston May 27th, 1930 to Mike Beimler and Helen (Anderson) Beimler. He was predeceased by his parents, his older brother Kenneth and his nephew Barkley Kendall. He is survived by his loving sister Betty Kendall, his sister-in-law, Ida, and their children. Also mourning his death are Shirley, Tim and Shane. Gene spent his early years in Whiskey Gap and attended school there and at Jefferson. With his quiet manner he was a friend to many. In his early years he enjoyed rodeo and participated in steer riding and calf roping. He ranched close to the mountains west of Beazer and loved the land, nature, his longhorns and buffalo. His buffalo provided an opportunity to meet many new friends and acquaintances. Gene was always grateful to his generous relatives, neighbors and friends who graciously supported, with non judgmental encouragement his endeavors. He often mentioned those who helped during tough times with ranching activities and encouragement. We would like to thank many people for their loving care of Gene — Dr Low and the Cardston Clinic, Home care and Grey Stoke Caregivers, the staff at Cardston Hospital, the TD Bank staff and also Legacy funeral home. A memorial service and celebration of Gene’s life will be in late spring May 27th, 2014, Cardston. Time and place will be announced later. Please Email condolences and pictures to legacyfh@telus.net.
