WELLS, Shirley Helen
It is with great sadness and broken hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Shirley
Wells at home on November 11, 2018.
Shirley was the daughter of the late Murdock and Hattie MacIntosh (Daisley). She was born
December 13, 1946 in Edwardsville. She married the love of her life Lonnie and they continued
to live in Edwardsville.
Shirley was a caregiver with Breton Caregivers. She was a member of the Point Edward
Women’s Institute for 35 years. Shirley loved going to dances, going for walks, reading and
enjoyed all the pleasures of life. Shirley was well known for her story telling. She had a way to
keep you intrigued until the very end of her story. To know Shirley is to love Shirley. Her kind
and gentle way will be missed. Whomever Shirley came in contact with, she made feel they
were amazing. Her presence was strong, and her kind words were empowering.
Shirley is survived by her husband, Alonzo Wells; daughter, Tarin Wells and brother,
Billy.
Besides her parents, Shirley was predeceased by her siblings, Bedford, Susie, Sadie Jennette
and Lambert.
At Shirley’s request, cremation has taken place. A celebration of life for Shirley
will take place on Saturday, November 17, 2018 at 11 a.m. in the S.W. Chant and
Son Funeral Home Chapel, 564 Alexandra St., Sydney with Rev. Sheldon Chant to
officiate.
