My Mother Shirley Doig
1948 - 2000
Shirley Margaret Elizabeth Doig was the bravest person I ever knew. On May 27, 2000
she past away after her long and courageous battle with cancer. Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia,
Canada, she was the daughter of the late Wilfred and Margaret Byers. She was a member of
the Women Alike (breast cancer survivors). Surviving her are her dovoted husband William
Doig Sr., her two sons John and William Jr. and daughter Emily and her brother Robert
Byers of Halifax. She was prededeceased by her sister Catherine Brown (Byers) who also
died from cancer. My mother is buried in the beautiful Brookside Cemetery, New Glasgow
Please give to the Canadian Cancer Society in her name so maybe someday we can find
a cure for this awful decease!
