Obituary of Mary Louise Shasky

SHASKY, Mary Louise -

Mary Louise Shasky (nee Markle) passed away peacefully at Markham-Stouffville Hospital on November 13, 2019, surrounded by family.
Her life was her family. Mary was the loving wife of Charles Walter (Charlie) Shasky, united in 64 years of marriage before his passing in 2018. She was a kind and devoted mother to her five children, Barbara (Peter), Ken (Arnaly), Cathy (Harry), Jim (Jacki) and Mike (Mary), and a doting grandmother to 9 grandchildren (Justin, Matthew, Brendan, Lauren, Michael, Christopher, Steven, Wade and Daniel).
She was an “angel” - - a gentle soul, a trusted listener and a loyal friend. She put others before herself and could always be counted on to lend a hand or an ear in times of need. She epitomized the virtues of selflessness and devotion. She will be missed by all of us.
Visitation will be at Dixon-Garland Funeral Home, 166 Main Street North, Markham, on Sunday, November 17th from 11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. The Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel on November 18th at 11:00 a.m. Interment will take place at Christ the King Cemetery with reception to follow.   In lieu of flowers, donations in Mary’s name to Friends of We Care (friendsofwecare.org) and the National Youth Orchestra of Canada (nyoc.org) will be gratefully accepted.
