Shirley M. Gee
The death of Shirley Mildred Gee occurred on Monday, August 8, 2016, at the Upper River Valley Hospital in Waterville.

Shirley was born on January 30, 1941, to the late Martin and Marion (Broad) Gee of Holmesville. She was also predeceased by her brother, Perry Gee, and her sister, Martina Canam.

Shirley is survived by her loving husband, Lee Canam, her daughter, Krista Dewey (David) and step children Theresa, Mark, Matthew and their families. She was a devoted mother and loving grandmother and could not have been more proud of her grandchildren, Kaitlyn and Benjamin Dewey. Shirley also leaves behind her sisters, Christina Broad and Sharon DeMerchant (Allan); her brother, Terry Gee (Debbie); as well as several nieces and nephews who thought the world of her and will miss her dearly.

Shirley worked as an Administrative Assistant and Legal Secretary during her career. She was a very hard worker committed to doing her best. She worked with the RCMP, Day & Ross, the Bath Hospital and Community Services. She was a loyal and caring friend who would always find a way to lighten a sad time with a joke.

Shirley lived a full and wonderful life, rich with a loving family and dear friends.

Her family would like to thank Dr. Bruce Lockhart and the staff at Upper River Valley Hospital for the care Shirley received while a patient there. Also, much love and appreciation is extended to her friends who visited Shirley over the past few years, reminded her of the good times and made her laugh.

In Shirley's memory, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Her family is respecting her wish that there be no visitation or funeral service.
