Dave, we are thinking of you and your loss of Shirley. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My sincere condolences Dave. I remember in high school how often you talked about Shirley

My sincere condolences on the passing of Shirley. With that beautiful smile and sunny disposition she always had, she could cheer anyone up no matter how low they were feeling.

She will truly be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Dave at this sad time. I have many fond memories of Shirley through the years working at York.

In 1967 Carol And I took Shirley, Billy, Bonnie and Granny to Expo 67 in Montreal. I rented a 17 foot trailer for all of us to stay in. We camped just outside of Montreal. I pulled the trailer with my station wagon. Granny (a little overweight) sat in the seat behind me over the muffler. She complained how warm it was and as it turned out the car was sitting so low that Grannie’s seat caught fire.
Billy and I took turns pushing Granny around Expo in a beat-up wheelchair with tiny 4″ wheels. The part I remember best was pushing Granny over the Jacque Chartier bridge and every 20 feet or so the front wheels would catch on the bridge dividers and almost dump Granny out onto the bridge. On the slope down Billy walked in front of the chair to keep it from tipping her into the St. Lawrence and I held on to the handles trying to keep it from going too fast. The trip down that bridge always reminded me of the movie “The Notorius Landlady” with Jack Lemon.
Shirley and Bonnie complained the entire trip. It wasn’t fun at the time but the memory of the whole trip was great to this day. Shirley and Bonnie were probably around ten at the time.
The last time I saw Shirley I remarked how much she looked like her Mother and I remember her thanking me.
My belief is that she will move on to the next level. I talked to her several days ago and she sounded good.
Del, Dorothy, Bill, George, Cal and Irene all came back to let me know that all was OK so I know she will be greeted with loving arms.
Death is an exciting beginning of a new phase of living for the soul.

I have not seen Dear Shirley for a couple of Years as Miles keep is apart So many fond Memories as Kids coloring books ,cut out dolls Christmas Time when all th Mitchell Families and Lupiccini families shared Holidays I remember how Devoted She was to Her sister Sandy One of My most recent fond Memories is when My oldest Son Kevin and Veronica got mariied and Shirley crying as the twins at such a Young age walking Their Mom and Dad down the Isle She was So much like Aunt Dorothy in looks and personality RIP Shirley Take Care of them all when You get Up there Hugs and Kisses Love Bonnie

Sincere condolences to you Dave at the loss of your dear Shirley. She reminded me so much of her mother especially the way she laughed and the things that she found funny. She was an inspiration to us all with her positive attitude. We will miss her very much. I am sure she is at peace now with her mother and the rest of the clan. God Speed. Love from Donna

My heartfelt condolences go out to Bob, Sandy, “Billy” and his Sandy. As with her mother, my Aunt Dorothy, Shirley was probably one of the best human beings I have ever known. There was never a bad thought or negative word said about anyone and her generosity of spirit is what I will always remember about dear Shirley. I will always remember how kind and patient Shirley was. When my family would visit Aunt Dorothy’s in Maple I would always find my way into Shirley’s room. She had this little type-writer and I really enjoyed typing on it. I probably wrecked the ribbon and left a mess of paper in the trash. Any one else would have been annoyed that a 10 year old cousin had been into their room but Shirley never once said anything or complained. She was just so loving and so giving. I will truly miss her. The world will be a little less bright now that her star has moved on to grace another world. God keep you in his heart my dear Shirley. You shall certainly be missed down here. Love you always. Valerie

Our condolences to you and your family at this time, Shirley was a wonderful person,she was a joy to know, we will miss her forever.
God Bless , Rest in Peace.

No words can express how much I loved Shirley….definately a part of my heart and soul. She was always there for me in so many ways. We will all miss her. Luv you Davey…Cher

To her family…I was a classmate of Shirley’s at Langstaff Secondary School. I am so sorry to hear about her passing.
We had lots of fun at school and about four years ago she joined a few other classmates that get together every year. It was good to see her then.

Love to you all…Sandra Grass

Dave I always looked forward to Shirley’s warm and pleasant smile at family functions.

your cousin; Sonny

When I think of Shirley all I can see is joy and a big smile. What a beautiful foot print to leave for everyone to remember. We are so sorry Dave for your loss. May you feel love, support and strength from family and friends as you go through this very difficult time.
Love, Debbie, Brody, Austin & Alexa Strange

So sorry to hear of Shirley’s passing. We are thinking of you Dave and we know that you will find comfort in the decades of memories you shared with Shirley. Take care of yourself!

I lived next door to Shirley, Dorothy, Billy and Sandy in Maple. Shirley was that lovely older girl that was next door and I gratefully received some of her hand me-down clothes. My parents Alma and Roy loved Dorothy and the family. They were good neighbors and friends and I have fond memories of the get-togethers.

Rest in peace Shirley and we are all just a little bit better for knowing you at some point in our lives.

Our thoughts are with you at this very difficult time. We will miss Shirley’s warm and welcoming smile. Love Janice and Mike

Dave, we are so sorry to hear about Shirley. You are in our thoughts during this sad time.

Dave we are very sorry to hear about Shirley. Shirley was always so happy and bubbly. I will always remember her that way. We are thinking of you.

Shirley’s smile could bring sunshine to a cloudy day. I met Shirley when helping with the food bank. I share the sentiments of everyone her knew her – that she was the most cheerful and lovely person I had ever met.

When we think of Shirley, it is with our heart, not head.
We met Shirley in a Bible Study, and felt instant love.
Shirley is a beloved child of God. He enveloped her, which gave her the supreme honour to emit His love to us. What an exceptional gift Shirley is.
Her words, her smile, her love of everyone is present, here, now.
I look in my Bible today to find Shirley. His words that were her foundation.
Galatians 5:22
The fruit of the Spirit.
Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Generosity, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self Control.
If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.
Love you Shirley, and send love to all who will miss you on Earth, but know you are with us, guiding us and filling us up!
Kevin and Carole

We have known Shirley since public school. All the words above are a true testament to the person she was. Shirley and I were in public school when we had our first job together. We painted western jewelry for a fellow not far from Old Pine Grove School. To Dave, Sandy, Bill and other family members, we send our love and prayers.
Kathy, Mike and family and Murray Snider

I was very saddened by the passing of Shirley. Even though we were miles apart we always kept in touch. My sympathies to Dave at this difficult time God Bless

Dave & Family,
My condolences on Shirley’s passing. I’ll always remember her smile, laugh and generous hospitality.
