Audrey Shannon

Beloved and treasured wife of the late Bruce Shannon (February 17th, 1986). Mother of Nancy (Hem) and the late Brian (March 17th, 2006) (Brigitte). Grandmother of Christopher and Gregory. Survived by brother Patrick of London and many nieces and nephews.

Audrey was born in Elora, and was the 13th in her family. She moved to Galt in 1952 when she married the love of her life, Bruce. For 68 years, she lived at 41 McDonald Avenue, the house on the corner with the hedge. She was the supervisor at Your Telephone Secretary for many years until she retired. Five years ago Audrey was reluctantly moved to The Marian Residence. She was home sick since she arrived there!

Thank you to the Sisters at the Marian Residence and we will always be grateful to the Marian Residence Nursing staff that went out of their way for Audrey… Mary Novak, Rinkal, Annie, Mayuri, Sanjana, Kharina, Kim, Carolina, Donna, Danuta and Yahya. Audrey can be quoted, “Sister, take me to my room!” and “Nurse take me up!” A special thank you to Dr. Kim Tysdale and Marilyn.

A Funeral Mass will be held on Monday, January 16th, 2023 at St. Patricks Parish, 153 Wellington Street, Cambridge at 11 a.m. Interment to follow at Mount View Cemetery, Cambridge.

As expressions of sympathy and in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Patrick’s Church, Cambridge or to a charity of your choice.
