<div itemprop="description"><br />Anne Shearer passed away peacefully at Delta Hospital on October 17, 2013. <br /> <br />Born and raised in Liverpool, England, her teenage years were spent experiencing the hardship of WWII. After some time spent in France, Anne went back to England where she married and had her first child, Karen (Al) grandchildren, Landon and Danielle. Being married to an Army husband led her to Canada, where she gave birth to Colin (Myrna), grandchildren Lindsay and Paula, and soon after she had Kevin (Doreen), grandchildren Nicole and Megan. Her life then led her to Germany, where she gave birth to Keith (Shelley), grandchild Ryan and great-grandchild Adelaide. From Germany she went back to Canada, settling in Richmond (finally)! <br /> <br />After working and retiring from BC Packers, she filled her days with travelling and golfing, achieving 2 holes in one! Eventually when she moved to Ladner, she took up lawn bowling. The joys of her life were her children and grandchildren and they kept her life full. Many days were spent travelling, walking and dancing with dear friends &ndash; her life was eventful to the end. <br /> <br />Anne was predeceased by her 2 brothers and 3 sisters. She is survived by her loving and devoted children and their families, her brother Jim (Jean), (thank you!) and her sister Jean (Peter) of England, and nieces and nephews. <br /> <br />Thank you to Dr. Turnbull and staff at Delta Hospital for their care and support. <br /> <br />Friends are welcome to attend a Gathering on Sunday, October 20th, at 4369 41B Street, Delta, BC at 5:30 pm. Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Monday, October 21st, 2013 at 11:00 am at Sacred Heart Parish, 3900 Arthur Drive, Delta, BC, with a reception to follow. <br /> <br />Anne was a long-time supporter of Delta Hospital, www.deltahospital.com and the Arthritis Society, www.arthritis.ca/BC and would be honored to see her commitment continued, in lieu of flowers. <br /> <br /> &ldquo;We will miss you mum &ndash; Good Night and God Bless&rdquo; <br /> <br /> <br /></div>
