It is with deep sadness and loving remembrance that the family of Shirley White announces her peaceful passing at home, surrounded by her family, on May 14, 2025, at the age of 91, in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

Born on July 8, 1933, in Alliston, PEI, Shirley lived a life deeply rooted in faith, family, and community. She was the beloved wife of the late Murray White, with whom she shared a passion for music and service—often visiting nursing homes together to sing for seniors. A devoted mother and grandmother, Shirley leaves behind her daughters Judy White (Warren Williams) and Debi White, her son Jeff White (Sherilee Condon), and her only granddaughter, Lindsay Haining. Fondly remembered by her nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her parents Bert and Laura Hicken, sisters Lillian (Bob) Lafferty and Annie (Billy) Stewart, and brother Neil (Mary) Hicken.

Shirley was a long-standing and faithful member of Central Christian Church, where her gentle spirit and compassion were felt by all. She also proudly served as a volunteer and member of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Auxiliary, always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need.

Her summers were joyfully spent in Murray Harbour, tending to her cherished colourful garden, collecting sea glass along the shoreline, bird watching, and preparing home-cooked meals for her family. Whether out on the boat, caring for children in her home, or offering a kind word to a neighbour, Shirley's life was a testament to the simple joys of generosity, love, and connection.

She touched the lives of many—family, friends, and members of her community—with her unwavering warmth and care. Shirley’s legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
