Shirley McKay Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Shirley McKay in Ottawa, Ontario, born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, who passed away on October 5, 2020, at the age of 99, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Shirley McKay to pay them a last tribute.
She was predeceased by: her parents, James Coupar and Sophia Coupar; her husband Col. Robert Neil McKay (Rob); and her sisters, Sheila White, Margaret MacDonald and Stella Stewart.
She is survived by: her sons, Robert James (Nancy) of Toronto and John Ian Neil of Ottawa; and her great grandchild Lucy Marie Amadea. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews their children and grandchildren.
Since Shirley outlived virtually all of her generation of family and friends and in light of COVID restrictions, there will be no service in Ottawa.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to St. Patrick's Home of Ottawa would be appreciated.
