Shirley Hovinga

Our heartfelt sympathy to Audrey, Dave, Lisa, Si, Sam, Lu, Henry, and Cassie,
Shirley was loved and well-cared for by all of you. You are an example of how to love and care for an elderly mom/grandma. You enabled her to live in comfort and contentment as her health declined: moving her into a new residence, one with familiarity due to her years of working at the Christian Rest Home, selling the house, helping her deal with the possessions we all accumulate, thus, giving her peace and...

I remember seeing Shirley when she was first gravely ill and in the hospital. Not a word of gloom or fear from her. A strong will and faith in the future glowed from her smile and words.

We loved Shirley here at the Manor where she lived with fortitude, grace and beauty. She left us too soon but said she hoped she would never need to stay in the rest home. God answered her prayer. I send my sincere condolences to you her family.
