January 2, 2025

With great sadness we announce Shirl's passing at the age of 78, peacefully on January 2, 2025, with her family by her side.

Predeceased by her parents Esther and Gordon Bishop and brother Ray Bishop.

She is survived by her sister Dorothy, sister-in-law Amy (Ray) and niece Vivian. Shirl also leaves behind her much beloved feline companions Smudge and Snazzie. Shirl was blessed with a wonderful and full life that included family, great friends and travel. Despite her recent 6 year battle with cancer, Shirl refused to give in and chose instead to fight back and remain optimistic through it all.

Shirl had a zest for life and brought joy to everyone she met and who could ever forget her sparkling blue eyes, wonderful smile and infectious laugh.

The family would like to thank the many members of the medical community for all of their kind help over the past years and particularly Dr Harminder Bolina and Dr Katharine Xing.

By Shirl's request there will be no service.
