Bessie Pearl Robertson

Bessie Pearl Robertson passed away at Providence Place, Moose Jaw, on Friday, March 11th, 2011 at the age of 90. Bessie Markell was born at the “Craik Homestead” on May 29th, 1920. She is predeceased by her parents, Fred and Eva Markell; her sister Helen McNutt; brothers in law Harold McNutt and John Shirran; and her husband Lloyd Robertson. She will be missed by her sister in law Beatrice Shirran; brother in law Cliff Robertson; nephews and nieces, Doug (Judy) McNutt, Jim (Angie) McNutt, Cindy McNutt, David McNutt, Donna McNutt, Henry (Daphne) Shirran, Shirley (John) Duesener, Bev (Walter) Wynnyczenko, and George (Denise) Shirran. Bessie was the daughter of a Free Methodist pastor, which meant her family moved to several different communities. She graduated from high school in Kindersley and then enrolled in a business course from which she graduated in 1941. She attended Moose Jaw Bible College in 1943 and then began working at Sterling Motors in Moose Jaw as a bookkeeper. She married Lloyd Robertson on May 3rd, 1951 after which the couple were appointed by the church to serve in First Nations ministries, which they faithfully fulfilled for over 32 years on several First Nations in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Bessie was always kind and thoughtful to everyone and kept in touch with her family and loved them very much. She also loved the Lord and depended on Him for strength and grace, especially in the years following Lloyd’s passing. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends. Thank you to the staff of Providence Place for their compassionate care. A Funeral Service will be held on Wednesday, March 16th, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. in Moose Jaw Funeral Home. Memorials may be made to Gideons International.
