Date of Funeral

August 5, 2024

It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Shirley Ann Louise Fediuk on Saturday September 09, 2023, with her family by her side.

Shirley was born in the Red Cross Hospital in Dryden, Ontario to Alex (Sandy) and Stella (Brankley) Hutchison.

Growing up with eight brothers was beneficial to her later in life when she found herself raising seven sons after her husband John’s tragic death in 1969.

Shirley attended the one room school at Van Horne south on Wabigoon Lake Road. After the family moved to town, she attended the high school. She went to Winnipeg to train to be a nurse but had to quit early because of illness.

Shirley met her future husband, John Fediuk when they were both working at the Red Cross Hospital. They were married on June 03, 1955, in Dryden.

After her youngest son was in school, Shirley was employed at Schmidt’s Greenhouse, Riverview Lodge and A.& W. for many years.

Shirley is survived by her sons: Don (Sheila), Doug (Bonnie – deceased), Dan (Debbie), Roger (Darlene – deceased (Elena), Barry (Shelley), Ken, and Harry (Barb). Grandchildren: Jennifer, Christopher, Justin, Jason, Nicholas, Crystal, Michael, Becky, Shaun, Trevor, Candice, Elizabeth, Chelsey, Carrie, Kyle, and Braeden.

Also, one brother: Allan (Liz), and sisters-in-law Grace Hutchison, Margaret Fediuk, Hazel Fediuk, Sylvia Fediuk and brothers-in-law Peter Tkach and Harry (Nellie) Fediuk.

She was predeceased by her husband John, her parents Alex (Sandy) and Stella (Brankley) Hutchison and brothers: Ross (Wanda), Dan (Hazel), Jim (Evalyn), Roy, Neil (Marg), Earl (June) and Gordon (Eva Fediuk), and two granddaughters Brianne and Jasmine. Her father and mother-in-law William and Mary Fediuk, brothers-in-law Peter, Steve (Louise), Alex (Virginia), Mike, Nick and sisters-in-law Anne (Peter) Kdochuk, and Angulla Tkach.

    On behalf of the Atkins family we would like to express our deepest sympathies to the Fediuk family.Shirley was an amazing lady to work with,she was strong and dedicated. I worried during late shifts when the high school kids were showing up for late shift, they liked to tease the full time ladies and fool around a bit,they never did that when Shirley was there. I knew at some time she had put them in there place and they respected her.It was a good feeling having her there, We hope your Family find peace and comfort during this time.
