    Our deepest sympathies to Doug, Scott and family. Shirley was a strong and positive woman who lived life to the fullest. We were glad to see her this past summer in Clarenville. During our time together she spoke proudly and fondly of her entire family. She had a special place in her heart for her grandchildren and great grandchildren. It was clear that she loved her time with them. Shirley’s loss will be deeply felt by all who knew her. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Karen, Keith and Bev.

    Doug, Scott, Elaine and family. We are deeply saddened by Shirley’s passing. We’ve been neighbours at Thorburn Lake for 30 plus years and couldn’t have asked for any better. Shirley enjoyed life, always ready for a bit of fun, a get together and especially a game of cards. There was never a dull moment when she was around. We will miss you Shirley and thanks for the 30 plus years of great memories. Chris and Arlette Reid

    So very sorry to hear of Shirley’s passing. She took me under her wing when I first moved to Clarenville and then she was Craig’s sitter when I returned to work. She was one of the nicest, most sincere, kind person I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. This is a very sad time for you and there is really nothing that can be said to erase that sadness. Only time and keeping all the precious memories alive will help. RIP lovely lady
