She will be sadly missed by her loving husband, Don; her children, Neil (Kim) Walls, Cheryl Walls all of Red Deer, Scott (Patricia) Walls of Lethbridge, Alberta; her dear seven grandchildren and eight great grandchildren which brought her such joy. Shirley will also be lovingly remembered by her sister, Kathryn Cameron of Stellarton, Nova Scotia as well as her many friends. She was predeceased by her mother, Violet Collins in 1982, and her father, Hugh Collins in 2002.
