Death notice for the town of: Aylmer, Province: Ontario
I last saw Shelley at a concert at the London Music Club this summer. We had always planned to golf sometime but there seemed to be always something in the way. So many regrets and sadness that I feel. I always looked forward to seeing Shelley at the Canterbury Folk Festival. I will miss her so much and her wonderful nature photographs.
So sad to hear. Shelley came to our house for music jams and was just the nicest person and so much fun. Gary and Diane Gagen
She was so excited about joining us for a concert in November – and we were excited to have her join us. A great keyboard player and an even nicer person… gone too soon.
