February 1, 1935-December 15, 2022
Born in in Lachine, Qc, true and proud of her roots, she spent many early years actively involved in the Lachine Canoe Club, forging many life-time friendships. Shirley was an active participant with a strong and fair voice within all her active communities. She passionately led many committees during her 25 years at the Beaconsfield Co-op. She gave her leadership and heart during the restoration of her childhood church, St-Andrew’s United in Lachine. In her later years her love for travel and adventure with friends took her to many places near and far. Her food was her gift of love to many. She will always be remembered for her flair in the kitchen and her delight in the sharing around the table, a few to many friends and family. Her traveling spaghetti to her beloved Maine will remembered by many.
She will be greatly missed by her children Daughter Kim Novotny (Jan), Son Robert David Skeates, daughter Dru-Ann Skeates (Rodger Colthirst) and son Guy Racicot. Grandchildren Max, Jade, Dylan and Brooke. Nieces and nephews April, Steve, Bob, Gary, Terri, Jamie and Kevin.
In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Teresa Dellar Palliative Care Residence. To whom we extend our gratitude and thanks for the compassionate and dignified care they extended to our mother and entire family. Celebration of life and internment will be held in the spring.
