From an early age, she displayed an unwavering dedication to her family, which she continued throughout her life. Her love knew no bounds and she always put the needs of her loved ones before her own. Shirleyann, she was the epitome of patience, guiding her children with a gentle hand and providing unwavering support in every endeavor. Her home was a sanctuary of warmth and love, where laughter and joy were abundant. She instilled in her children the values of love, compassion, and resilience. Shirley had a zest for life and an infectious smile that brightened any room she entered. She loved cooking and baking and was known for her bake and saltfish, peas and rice, and black cake…which she shared with anyone around.
