Rolston, Shirley Barbara
Age 92, passed away peacefully on November 22, 2021 at Creek Way Village, Burlington, Ontario. Born in Halifax on October 5, 1929, she was the daughter of the late Harry and Violet (Gates) Cornelius. Following her graduation from Halifax Ladies College, she settled in Ontario, but returned each summer to her beloved family home on the point in Hacketts Cove. She loved to sit on the deck overlooking St Margaret’s Bay, reading or watching the sun set with a cat or two at her side. Sailing on Ezee on Lake Ontario, she was a long time member of Bronte Harbour Yacht Club. She loved to entertain family and friends and was always ready to try out a new recipe. Shirley lived a fulfilling life as a loving wife, mother and friend. Her gentle demeanor and good humour will be greatly missed.
She is survived by her husband of 66 years, Donald; children, Susan (Scott), Hacketts Cove, NS, and Gregg, Burlington.
Cremation has taken place, a celebration of life to follow at a later date. The family would like to thank the staff at Creek Way for the exception care and compassion they have shown her over the past four years. In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
