DUNN, Shirley (nee Lindskog)

On June 21, 2009 with daughter Chris and her sisters by her side, Shirley went to be with her beloved soul mate John Dunn. She leaves behind a small army of family and friends that loved, laughed, shopped and lunched with her and will miss her always. Her daughter Chris Campbell (Colin), grandson Andrew and granddaughter Sophie, sister Linda Innes (Jim), sister Marlene Peters (Rick), nephew Rob Stewart, nephew and god-son Geoff Stewart (Lavonne), sister Bev Blancard (Dave), nephew Trevor and niece Jamie, god-daughter Kelsey Taylor and Michelle. Donna and the HOW Girls were an essential part of the happiness that Shirley enjoyed over the last few years Shirley was born November 23, 1947 in Quebec City to the late Marge and Gordon Lindskog. Moving from Winnipeg in 1966, Shirley along with her husband John founded Lulu Island Designs on Stevenson Landing. Shirley's homes were always show places with wonderful colours and beautiful decor. Her wardrobe was ever changing and she always had the right thing to wear with the perfect jewellery. Shirley loved shopping for clothes, jewellery, shoes or food. There was no such thing as just looking. It was all an adventure. Shirley loved being a mother and was wild about being a grandmother.

Special thanks to the staff of ICU at Peace Arch Hospital. We could not have asked for more kindness and compassion during Shirl's last few days.

A celebration of Shirley's life will be held at Victory Memorial Park 14831-28 Ave, Surrey BC on Saturday June 27, 2009 at 10am. Please wear bright colours and help us honour Shirley's life and individuality. If you wish, in lieu of flowers, a donation in Shirley's name may be made to the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation. Shirl, the wagons are in a circle. Go be with John and Mom and know we are alright.
