• Condolences to her family and friends. I remember Shirley when I was new to Canada and joined Toastmasters at U of W. She was always so cheerful and encouraging. I'm glad I had the honor of knowing her - Posted by: Ronald Connor (Fellow UW Toastmasters member) on: May 11, 2023

• I knew Shirley from the start of my career in 1981 at the University of Winnipeg in the Mathematics and Statistics department. I first met Shirley at the library. She was a very friendly and helpful person at her job in the library. After her retirement she joined our small group of swimmers, three times a week at the Misericordia Hospital, now Misercordia Health Centre pool. And I got to know her more about how cheerful and friendly person she was. Rest In Peace Shirley. My sincere sympathies to family and friends.

• I always knew who to go to in the era previous to the availability of online journals at the University of Winnipeg, to photocopy articles at 4:30 on a Friday or to advocate for new periodicals. Always helpful, always smiling, Shirley was a pleasure to know. - Posted by: Brian Pettitt (Former colleague (UW Chemistry)) on: May 02, 2023

• I knew Shirley at the University. She was always helpful and outgoing in her work. I also saw her regularly at the Rady Centre. I sensed always that she was carrying an illness but she bore it with courage and humour. There is one less cheerful and dedicated person with her passing. - Posted by: Allen Mills (Friend, former colleague) on: May 02, 2023

• I was a colleague of Shirley’s at The University of Winnipeg. I met her soon after I arrived in 1987; soon after that, I met her again when I went into a class to talk about Canadian literature and Shirley was in attendance. She had an infectious smile and was one of the friendliest faces on campus. Everyone knew that she would do anything to help anyone in the Library. She was a warm and cheery presence. My deep sympathies to her family. - Posted by: Neil Besner (Former colleague at The University of Winnipeg) on: May 02, 2023

• On behalf of the Tuxedo Ladies Golf Club I would like to extend our sincere condolences to Shirley’s family at this difficult time. Shirley belonged to our golf club for many many years making numerous lifelong friendships. In the last few years she was only able to get out a few times to golf but when she came she had a wonderful time. She even managed to come out to our Closing Awards Banquet last fall and our members were thrilled to see her. Her remarkable positive attitude will be remembered by all. May she rest in peace!

• I got to know Shirley in our latter years or frequently met her dropping in to see my mom and dad at their house. Shirley was always full of life and I admired her strength and energy that she had. I remember our good conversations on the phone too. Wish the family and her friends much blessings for your loss and may you feel comforted knowing its the beginning of her eternal journey..
