I met Shirley in April of 2016 when I first started working with her. I liked her instantly and our friendship blossomed quickly. She was a wonderful, patient teacher with a strong work ethic. I will forever miss her sense of humour, her wit and her care for others.  Most of all, I will miss our shared story-telling and laughter during our lunch breaks.  Rest in Peace, Shirley.

Dear Tom:
I am deeply saddened by the sudden and unexpected loss of your "Shirley".  My deepest sympathy to you and your family.  I will always remember Shirley's beautiful smile and warm disposition.  I have great memories of her from High School and sharing our first apartment together in Brampton.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Love Jo-Anne

Deb Murphy

In my mind I can still see Shirley as she walked in the door 29 years ago, on her 1st day of work at CMTL. Words cannot express how saddened myself, and all of her co-workers are by her sudden passing. We will miss her friendship, her smile and her stories that evoked her love of her family. 
With deepest condolences

Tom, Tommy, Heather and family,
It has been so sad that Shirley passed away so suddenly. She was such a warm hearted person and always happy. She will be greatly missed. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories will help us cope.

Tom, Tommy, Heather and all of your family,
I am so shocked and deeply sad to hear that our beautiful,  warm hearted and loving Shirley has died.  Shirl was such a beautiful person....so real and full of laughter.  She always reminded me of her Mom....another loving and belly laughing lady.
I have so many wonderful memories of Shirley and know that her love for you Tom  and your family was always her reason for living.

Tom, please know that I am so grateful to have shared the privilege of "growing up" together.  I loved you and Shirl then, and I still do know. 
Rest in loving peace my friend, Shirl.

I have just learned of Shirley's death.  I am in shock as I know the family is too.  Shirley, Liz, Marlene and I solved most of life's challenges during high school.  I will always have wonderful memories as do you.  Even sudden death cannot take those away.  Our prayers are with you.  Karen (Trimble) Horst

We were truly blessed to have had Shirley in our lives for so many years as a beloved friend and treasured colleague at CMTL. We will miss her beautiful smile, her warm and cheerful nature and her ability to see the best in everyone she met. Shirley's love of family and her pride in Tommy and Heather were the cornerstones of her daily conversations with staff and friends. May your wonderful memories of Shirley ease the pain you are feeling during this time of sorrow and loss.

Tom, we are terribly sorry to hear about the passing of Shirley.  We remember how she always had a smile on her face and some great story to tell us at our Air Canada gatherings.  She was a beautiful person.  Our condolences to you, your children and grandchildren. A person that departs from this earth never truly leaves, for they are still alive in your hearts, and through all of you, they live on.

Heather, 
No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. Our deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

So sorry to hear about Shirley.  We're still in such a daze about it.  She was such a lovely person.  Always so jovial, caring and personable.  I was already upset that she was retiring, but this is the worst!  I will miss her funny stories and e-mail comments.  She always made the day better.  Janet Glover from the Mississauga lab

Shirley was a very personable and easy going friend. She loved her family without exception. She will be sorely missed by all.
Liz and Tom Morby
