Mrs. Shaw was a member of the Methodist Church and the Ladies’ Aid Society at Christie, and she was a faithful worker in each organization for many years. She was a loving wife and mother, and a true friend. Her willingness and ability to help her friends in time of sickness and trouble were only a few of her fines traits.
