Shirley Ilene Quirk

In Loving Memory of Shirley Quirk August 19, 1923 – November 24, 2018 We are sad to announce the passing of our mom, grandma and great grandma. Mom was born in Ottawa and on a trip to Vernon she met John, with whom she was married to for 62 years before he passed in 2008. She worked in the kitchen at the Vernon Prep School before settling down to raise her family and also at the Coldstream library for many years. Mom loved to garden, travel and spend many years with dad bird watching with the Vernon Naturalist Club. But it was her love of her family that defined who she was. We all meant everything to her and her door was always open for fun times, family gatherings, tears and hugs. Shirley was predeceased by her husband John and sister Marguerite; and survived by her sister Luella, son Don (Marge) of Grand Prairie; daughters Phyllis of Enderby and Marilyn (Ed) of Vernon; seven grandchildren and ten great grand Children. We love you and miss you so Much! There will be no service at this time.
