NELSON (NEE HEBERT), Shirley
1934 - 2023
Shirley Nelson passed away peacefully at the CHUS-Hotel-Dieu Palliative Care on Sunday July 9, 2023 at the age of 88 after a brief battle with cancer.
Cherished mom of Trenholm(Pauline Antink), Douglas(Francine Beliveau) and Judy(Michael Morin), loving Nanny to Lee Ann(Josh), Tiffany(Rony), Kira, Adam(Jessica), David(Frederique), Sarah(Mathieu), Katelyn and Jacob(Rosemarie), and fourteen great-grandchildren.
Shirley was predeceased by her husband William(Bill) Nelson in 2005 and was the daughter of the late Allie Hebert and the late Marguerite Barlow of Denison Mills.
Shirley also leaves to mourn her brother Bobby(late Myrna), sisters Gail(late Peter), and the late Velma(late Howard) along with many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
Besides loving and caring for her family, Mom spent many hours knitting, making sure that our beloved Belgians looked their best at every fair and event, pampered her geraniums and was a lifetime member of the Melbourne Ridge Women’s Institute. Since Dad passed she also has spent many memorable moments with her friends and caregivers at the day center CLSC foyer in Richmond.
Donations may be made directly through her children to the CHUS-Hotel-Dieu-Palliative Care, where she was given loving, compassionate care in her last weeks, or Les Auxiliares benevoles du Centre hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke, 580,rue Bowen Sud, Sherbrooke (Quebec) J1G 2E8. These were Shirley’s wishes.
A graveside service will be held at the St-John’s Cemetery (Gallup Hill, 950 Ch. Coddington, Melbourne) on Saturday, August 5th 2023 at 2:00pm. The family will be available for condolences one hour prior, from 1to 2:00pm, weather permitting.

Shirley Nelson
A truly kind and gentle person. As a teen relative, I visited the farm quite a bit and was always treated as a welcome guest which is how she treated everyone. She and Billy made a great team and raised a special family. My condolences to the family.
RIP Shirley.
