Thank you all for your heartwarming condolences, and lovely memories. The Lang Family
I just found lastnight January 2, 2020 of the passing of Shirley. I was heart broken. I kinda thought something wasn’t right when i kept trying to call her house # and nothing would happen. I had a bad feeling about it. We googled her name and sure enough this is what i found. I did radiation with Shirley 5 years ago in Sudbury. Ever since that we had an unbreakable bond. I will sure miss her. Our phone conversations. love you. Love Shawna (she would call me BOO BOO)
I’m sorry for your loss. Shirley was a good friend I happy to help her when she needed. Ellen Parrington

Dear Val and family, I never met your mom and only learned of her death tonight, through her friend, Marie-Rose, who lived in the same apartment building. Marie described her to me and I saw and. heard you. I then remembered you talking about Shirley and Russell as only cheeky teenagers do. My sincere sympathy. Laurie
