Dear Thetis Island friends, as you have heard our dear community member Veronica Shelford died this past Tuesday.

Veronica has requested a natural burial in St. Margaret’s Cemetery. She will be technically the first to be buried in this more natural way. That means the burial must happen within a couple of days. St. Margaret’s Cemetery is making an urgent call out to the community for someone to come forward who has a small backhoe capable of digging a plot approx. 4 feet wide by 4 feet deep. Preferably with rubber treads.

Veronica contributed so much to our community. I am trusting that there is someone who can come forward to assist in making her burial as beautiful as we can.

Please contact
