It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Shirley Ann Louise Fediuk on Saturday September 09, 2023, with her family by her side.
Shirley was born in the Red Cross Hospital in Dryden, Ontario to Alex (Sandy) and Stella (Brankley) Hutchison.
Growing up with eight brothers was beneficial to her later in life when she found herself raising seven sons after her husband John’s tragic death in 1969.
Shirley attended the one room school at Van Horne south on Wabigoon Lake Road. After the family moved to town, she attended the high school. She went to Winnipeg to train to be a nurse but had to quit early because of illness.
Shirley met her future husband, John Fediuk when they were both working at the Red Cross Hospital. They were married on June 03, 1955, in Dryden.
After her youngest son was in school, Shirley was employed at Schmidt’s Greenhouse, Riverview Lodge and A.& W. for many years.
