With family support, she was able to remain at her Massie home until moving to Grey Gables 16 months ago.

Fondly remembered by 10 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren.  Predeceased by 2 brothers and 5 sisters as well as Carman’s 5 sisters and 2 brothers.

After her marriage, she became Carman’s right-hand gal on their farm. Ruth devoted time to local and county organizations, notably UCW, WI, 4H Clubs, Federation of Agriculture and the Historical Society. She was awarded a Canada 125 medal for volunteer service and received the Tommy Cooper Award in 2006.

"The family would like to thank Beloit Health System, Huntington Place and Agrace Hospice for the loving care they gave to Mary."
Mom moved to her final reward in heaven yesterday evening. Over ninety years of her life was spent positively impacting other's lives in her many roles as a sister, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, registered nurse, catechism teacher, volunteer, water skiing instructor, bowler and golfer extraordinaire. She truly believed in service before self, simultaneously raising six children, working in the Edgerton Hospital ICU, and volunteering in her church and many local organizations including the Tri-County Community Center. Her wit, wisdom, and love for others will truly be missed; however, her memory will live on in all of those who knew her here on earth. May God accept her into the Kingdom of Heaven and reunite her with those who have passed before her. If Heaven has a golf course, there is a good chance you will find her there.... 
Burial*She was buried in Resurrection Cemetery, Wyoming, Kent County, Michigan, United States.

Death*Mary Ann Shier died on 8 October 1906 in Warminster, Simcoe County, Ontario, Canada; The Orillia Packet, Oct 11, 1906- MRS.
