Betty Shiels was born in Cardiganshire, Wales. When she was growing up in South Wales, Betty had a wonderful voice and sang in many competitions. Her love of music would stay with her throughout her life. In the fall of 1942, she met the love of her life, a young Canadian soldier named George Shiels. Although Betty had many trials over her lifetime, she never complained. Her children always came first and she would often do without for them. She was greatly loved and will be sadly missed by everyone. Rest in peace, Betty. Betty was predeceased by her parents, her husband George, and sons, David and Bill.
