SHAW - Ethna (née O’ Connor) (First Anniversary - August 17)

It’s hard to believe that it is over a year since our beloved Ethna left us. Celine and Stan would like to thank all who helped us during that time, especially her brother and sisters and their families. Also, the Kendrick family and friends and neighbours. The holy sacrifice of the mass will be offered for all.

“Life is real,

life is earnest

and the grave is not its goal.

Dust thou art, to dust returnest,

was not spoken of the soul”
