Family was the most important part in Shirley's life, she loved getting everyone together for meals, special occasions and the occasional family poker game.
She loved her garden very much, sharing its bounty with family, friends and sometimes total strangers. In the last few years living downtown with her daughter and her husband, Shirley was known as the happy little lady with the garden vegetable's to share with anyone in the neighborhood.
Shirley, Gramma, Great Gramma and Mom will be missed greatly. She was loved by everyone who met her. Rest in Peace.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Nanaimo SPCA in her memory would be appreciated.
