at the age of 86 years

She was so full of life
Not ready to leave
Too many things to still achieve
Her age was a senior
Her heart a teenager
She was wacky, beautiful, wonderful, wise
Many lives she touched with her humour and wiles
She loved nothing better than to make people smile
She flew away as a blue butterfly
And I know she will look down on her loved ones every day

LOVE YOU SHIRL.  MISS YOU ALREADY
JEE

Shirley was the first born of Rudolph and Frances Evanoff.

Left to celebrate her and her life is her husband William Colling, sons David Leaf(Darlene) and Martin Leaf, grand daughter Tae Evanoff, brothers Jon Evanoff and Danny Evanoff(Pat), sisters Arlene Richards and Janice Evans (Dave), relatives and friends whose lives she touched.

Her love and humour will carry us forward.

at the age of 78 years

You now sleep, for all tomorrows,
We all now weep, from heartbreak and sorrows,
Your pain is no more, you can now finally rest,
Our hearts may be sore, yet we know, it is best.

Mom passed peacefully in her sleep, at age 78, in Bastion Place, Salmon Arm, following a short battle with cancer.

Prudy leaves to mourn, her sisters, Patricia and Pauline in Ontario, along with their families.  Grandma will be sadly missed by her 4 grand daughters and 5 great grandchildren.
