Mom was the living definition of a hard-working woman. She was fun, efficient, loyal, resilient and she was also crazy because she thought cleaning walls and baseboards was a weekly chore. Shirley was tough-as-nails, never letting us kids get away with anything and yet, somehow Mom could still be completely loving at the same time.
We sincerely thank and send big love to our amazing Aunties: Carla, Diane, Theresa and Trudie for their unwavering support, tender love and dedication to Mom.
We now have an angel watching over us all and you know wherever she is, she is saying "Don't cry for me, there are better ways to spend your time".
Our hearts are broken but as a family, we remain strong because a strong woman raised us.
We love you forever 💜
Tania, Jeary, Karly, Molly, Kim, Val, Taylor, Mitchell, Marty, Kathy, Celine & Marc
