Gould, Shirley Theresa – Age 94 of Elmsvale. Our dear mom peacefully left this world on February 10, 2023. It was with sad hearts that we said "Goodbye", but we knew Mom went with such dignity to be with our Dad, Roy, the love of her life.
Born in Upper Musquodoboit, she was a daughter of the late Dugald and Edna Archibald.
She and Roy were married on July 5, 1947. Four girls arrived over time and they knew that they were the luckiest girls ever to have such love, happiness and support of two special parents. Mom lived her married life in Elmsvale where she was active in the community. She loved dancing, shopping, family gatherings, playing cribbage, visits and phone calls from family and friends, and looking after her kitty, Jodi, whom she adored.
She will always be loved and missed by daughters, Karen, Judy (Barry), Faye (Chris) and Nancy (Norm). The family grew from four girls to four spouses, 14 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, and a great-great grandson. She was the eighth of nine children being survived by her brother, Lester and his wife, Dawn.
Mom was predeceased by her husband, Roy; son-in-law, Ron Harris; grandson, Allan MacIvor; sisters, Gertrude, Lois, Ethel and Lauretta; brothers, Stuart, Rollie and Neil.
Mom was able to stay in her own home as long as her health allowed, thanks to the help from her caregivers. She also enjoyed visits from Phyllis and Emily. Thank you to all who made life comfortable and happy for Mom.
Our sincere thanks to all of the staff and Dr. Karen Day at MVMH for the wonderful care given to Mom.
In keeping with her request, there will no visitation or funeral service. A private burial will be held in Riverside Cemetery, Elmsvale. Donations in Mom's memory may be made to any SPCA or any charity of choice.
