Shirley will be remembered when shopping by numerous people in Nakusp as she and Clarence jokingly bantered back and forth with each other and staff. Shirley loved playing the piano. She always looked forward to playing for the united church, Halcyon Home and Minto House in Nakusp. She thoroughly enjoyed her time with the Senior Serenaders of Nakusp. Her passion was to spend time with her husband Clarence. They loved to go shopping, watch TV, go camping, play a variety of board and card games and their XBOX 360.
Cremation has taken place at Nelson Crematorium.
