She had a huge and generous heart, coupled with an unbridled voice. One always knew where you stood with Myrna. There wasn't a shy bone in her body when sharing her thoughts - about you, the people in her orbit, or what was on her mind. There is something to be said for being genuine.She loved her kids, grandkids and great-grandchildren. Sometimes you weren't so sure in the moment, however we all knew and understood her true self and who she was at her core. She loved nothing more and could not wait for the opportunity to expand her immediate family circle to include her adored nieces and nephews, their spouses, and offspring. She was a phenomenal hostess and great friend to many cherished people in Montreal and, indeed, around the world.Most of all, she was crazy about Stanley, enjoying a marriage that grew and flourished for sixty years. We will miss Myrna terribly, but are glad that they are together again, golfing in the brightest of sunshine, just as spring arrives. May their drives be straight, their putts be true, and their memory forever be a blessing. Love you Mom. Love you Grandma.Contributions in Myrna's memory may be made to the Cummings Jewish Centre for Seniors Foundation, (514) 734-1825. A private graveside service will take place.

SHIBLY JOSEPH COSRA ABELA April 26, 1940 - August 4, 2011 Shibly passed away peacefully in the home that he loved, surrounded by his family. Shiblys strength, courage and character will be deeply missed by his loving wife and best friend of 42 years, Daphne. Together, they raised a strong and loving family of five children: Daphne Van, nee Conroy (Robin), Peter Conroy (Donna), John Conroy (Jo-Anne), Caroline Dickens, nee Abela (Geoff) and Carmen Abela (Aaron McCrorie) (former husband and friend Charlie Reid). His 19 grandchildren will cherish their memories of their wise, ingenious and loving Papa: Justin, Christopher and Julie; Ryan, Nicole, Joshua, Michael and Taylor; Declan, Liam, Pierce and Rose; Kate and Ben; Kennedy, Liam, Keira, Melissa and Patrick. The family continues to grow with Shiblys great-grandchildren: Rory, Lilly, Alice and Waylon. His brother and dearest friend, Bernard (the late Suzanne), his loving sister Marguerite (Maggie) Sabine (Keith) and their families, as well as all his dear friends will forever hold him close in their hearts. Shibly will be remembered and loved for his unbending integrity, his deep curiosity and his desire to learn. Throughout his life, he unfailingly sought to understand and challenge the status quo, building solutions for even the most perplexing of problems. His love of Canada distinguished him and has always been the foundation for his professional and personal contributions. His early years in the Canadian Naval Reserve were followed by a distinguished career in the both the public and private sectors. Shibly's approach to his life was profound yet simple; the rule by which he lived: contribute. Born in Alexandria, Egypt and raised in a traditional environment, Shibly's open- mindedness, tolerance and kindness form the legacy that he leaves his family. His spiritual philosophy was simply love each other. In his last years of life, his family was extended to include the excellent caregivers at the Haematology Clinic of the Ottawa Hospital. Notably, among the dedicated team that cared for Shibly, Dr. Mitchell Sabloff and Annie Worley were dear to his heart because of their compassion, sensitivity and understanding of his strong will to survive. Their friendship and that which he received from his Support Group contributed greatly to the quality of his life and to his search for answers. Ancora ImparoI am still learning.In thanks to the team of people who supported the family and enabled Shibly the grace and dignity to die at home, donations are being accepted for the Palliative Care Outreach Program, c/o; 1716 Woodward Drive, Suite 111, Ottawa, ON, K2C 0P8, founded by Dr. Margaret Farncombe.Friends and family are invited to visit at the Central Chapel of Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, 315 McLeod Street (at OConnor), Ottawa, on Thursday August 11 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. A Memorial Mass will be Celebrated at Saint Patricks Basilica, 281 Nepean Street, Ottawa, on Friday August 12 at 10 a.m.

Born in Cheshire, England, she married Peter in the UK in 1951 following his war service and later graduation as an Architect, they then flew TCA to Canada the next day, not knowing a soul there, which was an adventure and everlasting honeymoon. Irene lived a full life in the UK with many adventures to relate, including her wartime service with the WAAF on the South Coast of England. In Canada their early home was in a lovely village, Hudson in Quebec enjoying our rural property; on amateur stage in Hudson, singing Gilbert & Sullivan songs; tending her garden; rearing our two children; looking after two large dogs plus the numerous wild furry friends on the property and really enjoying her walking and golf games. Irene always brought a smile to all she met, with her natural beauty, kind sunny nature, great sense of humour and her eternal optimism which made her so unique. She is now so missed by her husband Peter; her brother Rundle Cook (Jeannine); our children Richard (Amy) and Karen; and our grandchildren Lauren, Justine, Cameron and Kaylee.
