Shirley
Kyte
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of
Shirley Rowena Kyte (nee Penney) on Sunday, September 2,
2018.
Born in Sydney on March 19, 1936, to the late Ambrose and
Mary (Gale) Penney, she was predeceased by her sister, Dorothy and
brothers, Clifton, John and Raymond.
Survived and sadly missed by her loving husband of 57 years,
George; son, Alan; daughters, Sheila (Ron) and Kelly (Kyle);
grandchildren, Thea, Allison, Rachel and Ben and many loving nieces,
nephews, sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law.
Living life to the fullest, Shirley found great happiness
spending time with her close friends, including her best friend of 60
years, Barbara MacLeod. Shirley and George enjoyed many active years
together in the skating community, rarely missing a skating dance. She
also took advantage of every opportunity to travel both locally and
abroad.
Shirley had great pride in her children and grandchildren and
was a source of never-ending support to them all. She cherished many
days and family gatherings at « The Point » which held a very
special place in her heart.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the
doctors and nursing staff in An Cala Palliative Care at the Cape
Breton Regional Hospital for the wonderful level of care and comfort
provided to them during this time.
A funeral service will be held at United Heritage Church, 500
Charlotte St. on Friday, September 7 at 1 p.m., with Rev. Rosemary
Godin officiating. Interment in Forest Haven Memorial
Gardens.
Memorials may be made to the An Cala Palliative Care or a
charity of your choice.

comfort can be sent to the family at www.sydneymemorialchapel.ca
