Since learning of Shelley’s passing, I have been repeatedly visited by memories of the early days of Rob and Shelley’s relationship. At U of A, Rob met, and introduced his Lethbridge pals to, a pretty, quiet, smart girl who he couldn’t take his eyes off. He never did. Their strong, loving bond was evident even then.
Rob, I am so sorry for your and your daughters’ loss. Much, much love.

I appreciated working with Shelley at the Misericordia. She was a compassionate and professional nurse who always put people first. Shelley loved nursing and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Shelley will be missed, I considered her a dear friend. She often spoke of how supportive her family were and how proud she was of her daughters. Sharing in your sadness, my deepest sympathy to the family.
