It is with heavy hearts we share that Shirley has joined her husband Aulis (predeceased 2010) with her peaceful passing on May 16, 2022.

Cherished mother of Allan (Sue), Liisa (Art) and David. Loving sister to Jim (Hilary) and Linda (Lynda). Treasured Mummu to Erika (Darren), Erin (Zachary), Chris (Lindsay), Kevin (Monica), Jordan (Patti), Christopher, Kaila (Nathan), Jodi (predeceased 2002), and Chelsey (Pierre). Cherished great-grandmother to Ethan, Hudson, Brynlee, Grace, Emma, and Ty. Adored Tatti to many nieces and nephews.

Shirley grew up in Levack where she was an avid athlete, playing softball and skiing at the Levack Ski Hill. It was at the ski hill she met her husband of over 50 years, when he went to her assistance after a fall. Shirley was active in the Finnish Community in Sudbury, volunteering her time and services for many years. She enjoyed endless sunsets at the family cottage on Lake Penage.

She was immensely proud of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and relished their many accomplishments.

She continued to manage the company’s books until retiring only two years ago. She discovered golf late in life and loved playing with friends and family.

She will be dearly missed by all whose lives she warmly touched.
