Shelley Ann Foster

On January 26, 2016, Shelley (Shelli) Ann Foster passed away suddenly and unexpectedly at the age of 56 years. Small in stature, but outsized in personality, Shelley was pre-deceased by her mother, Priscilla Foster (née Campbell) and her father, Gordon Foster. She is survived by her brothers Stephen and Bruce; her sisters-in-law Edie and Gwen; her nieces Stephanie and Jen, and her nephews Adam, Nick, and Chris.

Shelley was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia and raised in Victoria, British Columbia. By the time she was a young adult, she was very pleased to call Calgary her home, and lived here for over 35 years. Shelley became well-known within the bicycle courier community in downtown Calgary, and cut a familiar figure on her bike in the downtown core. Shelley was an avid runner and animal lover, lavishing attention on a variety of pets, including her beloved cat, Jasper, who is now being cared for by Shelley’s long-time friend and partner, Mr. Kelly Clarke. Through it all, and to the end of her life, Shelley always placed a special value on the importance of family ties. May she find the peace she so deeply deserves. There will be a gathering of friends and family to mark Shelley’s passing at a later date.
