Shirley was amazing at keeping in contact and remembering details of our family. We never saw Elgin and Shirley much but they were around for memorable times like our wedding reception and my dad's (her cousin) big anniversaries.
I found her amazing because she would talk so much that I wondered if she was listening, only to realize later in the conversation she had heard my every word!
She was the true glue that held the family together and even though we moved to BC 42 years ago, she would still call on our anniversary at 6am PST which was a reasonable 9am in Ontario. It always made us smile.
She often told about her children whom she related as being similar in age to myself and my brother John. She was a great story teller and loving kind woman.
RIP

Elgin and family,
Please accept of sincerest condolences on the passing of Shirley, I have very fond memories as a child visiting the farm and enjoying all of the animals. I remember chasing the piglets into the field and trying to round them up after they escaped from the barn and then sitting down to a delicious meal with all of those desserts. Shirley was a marvelous cook and always made a point to call us on our wedding anniversary wishing us a happy anniversary even after all of these years. Her laugh and smiling face will be very much missed.
Rest in peace Shirley.
Gary and Denise Mitchell, Evan, Emma
