Deepest sympathy William Katy Kathy and family, at the passing of Shirley. She was such a gentle caring person, with whom we shared many happy and sad times. The kind of lady one was privileged to call a true friend. Grieve you will, but you can be strengthened in knowing she was a wonderful matriarch, who is now at peace with Derek, and Douglas. Rosemary and John Mulin

To a wonderful lady!!! You will be missed very much. THank you Shirley for everything.

Willie and family. We are so sad to hear of the passing of a fabulous lady and friend to our family. She will now be at peace.

Shirley and Milton Maindonald and Family
