"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.

Deceased was a descendant of a family of refugees from the Palatinate, Germany, who settled in the County of Limerick, Ireland, in the early part of the reign of Queen Anne. The subject of this notice was born at Rathkeale, Court Matrix, Limerick, in 1817, and in 1837 was united in marriage to Joseph Teskey, a descendant of another German family who settled in Limerick at the same time.

Birth*Mary Ann Elta Shier was born on 29 August 1890. 
She was the daughter of Francis John B. Shier and Emma (Ellen) Vanderburgh
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1891 in the household of Francis John B. Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1901 in the household of Francis John B. Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1921 in the household of Frank Leslie Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada
(Witness) Fact 1Mary Ann Elta Shier witnessed the Fact 1 of Morley Roy Shier; On October 3, 1911, Montgomery as Mrs. Ewan MacDonald was introduced as the minister’s new wife and honoured with a reception dinner at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church. Three of the families she met that evening – The Shiers, the Brookses and the Lapps – would never have expected to be mentioned in her books. Catherine* and James Shier’s farm was located a few acres away from the Leaskdale Church. They had three children in 1911: Mabel was nineteen; Morley, sixteen, was a student at Uxbridge High School; and Harvey was nine.

The sons [of the three families] would have known the MacDonald’s for only a few years, but their families and relations became friends especially the younger siblings because they grew up during the fourteen years that Montgomery created and directed the Young People’s Association.

Morley Roy Shier knew “Mrs. Mac” for about two years before he left to attend the University of Toronto’s teacher-preparation program. Bob Brooks was in Ewan’s congregation for about 6 years before he enlisted. Gordie Lapp was at home foe only a year before leaving to work and study pharmacy. They joined three different military units at different times between 1915 and 1917. These three young men represent the sacrifices that small communities all over Canada invested in the world conflict. Montgomery planned, wrote and revised Rainbow Valley during the final years of the war, from 1917 to 1918. Montgomery penned the dedication to the pilot Morley Shier and the two soldiers Bob Brookes and Gordie Lapp, when she finished the Rainbow Valley manuscript in late December 1918, three months after the death of the last casualty, Flight Lieutenant Shier.

Several Shier family members were Montgomery’s friends, including Morley’s cousin, Mary Shier McLeod. Readers of Montgomery’s journals will recall Morley’s uncle, Dr. Walter Columbus Shier, who was a physician in Leaskdale and Uxbridge. Dr. Shier attended the MacDonald family and was the first doctor to treat Ewan’s depression. Another uncle was Rob Shier** who lived in Zephyr; his third wife was Lillis Harrison (Lily Reid), Montgomery’s household helper from 1912 to 1915 and a trusted friend throughout Montgomery’s life.

Morley was a teacher first at Corson’s Siding, northeast of Leaskdale and then at Earl Grey School in Toronto. Shortly after Montgomery began work on Rainbow Valley, Morley stared pilot training. He went to England in May 1918, after basic flight training, to learn combat and reconnaissance skills at the British advanced flying schools. He was assigned to the 256th Royal Air force Squadron formed in June 1918 at Seahouses, Northumberland. The squadron did coastal surveillance for German submarines and flew two-seater Canadian built de Havilland DH-6 planes, with a range of about four hours of flight. One of the many nicknames for the DH-6 was “the Flying Coffin”.

Shier became an active RFC pilot in June 1918 at the age of twenty-three. About one-quarter of the RFC squadron crews were Canadian. Most RFC combat pilots survived an average of about three weeks once they began their combat flights. Although reconnaissance pilots were not exposed to enemy fire as often as combat pilots, the risk to them was still significant; they were not armed but could carry bombs, and parachutes were not allowed because they were too heavy.

After two months of flying, Flight Lieutenant Shier and his plane went down in the fog in the North Sea on Sept 6, 1918 about twenty miles from shore. Montgomery did not hear of Morley’s death until a month later, three days before Germany and Austria agreed to peace in October 1918.Shier’s name is on the Hollybrook Memorial in Southampton, England, erected by the Imperial Ware Graves Commission with the names of those lost at sea. Members of the Shier family placed a marker in the cemetery at Leaskdale and a plaque in the church to honour him at home.
