1935 ~ 2015
It is with sad hearts that we mourn the loss of our loving wife, mother, and grandmother who passed away peacefully the morning of her 80th birthday.
Shelagh enjoyed traveling; she and Doug visited family across Canada and she celebrated her 75th birthday in Ireland with her daughters. She had a warm heart, a smile for everyone, and always had a story to share.
She will be forever remembered by her husband Douglas of Pinawa, MB, daughters Janis Wokoeck (Lanny) of Kelowna, BC, Kathryn Price (Norm) of Winnipeg, MB, and Carolyn Dyma (Richard) of Charlotte, NC, grandchildren Tyson, Lukas, Nikolas, Dayna, and Jaryd, and sisters Yvonne Larner (Ray) of Winnipeg, MB and Jocelyn Goodman of Vancouver, BC. She is also survived by sister in-law Phyllis Bell of Winnipeg, MB as well as many nieces and nephews.
She is predeceased by her infant son Donald Brian, her parents John and Eileen Bell, brothers Brian (Helen), Robert, and brother in-law Roger.
The family would like to thank the staff of Pinawa Hospital and her many friends for their love and support.
A celebration of Shelagh’s life will take place at the Alliance Church in Pinawa on Tuesday, September 15th at 2:00 p.m. with Internment to follow in the Pinawa Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
Offer Condolence for the family of Shelagh O’Neil Lyons (nee Bell)

Our sincere condolences to all the family. We hope that you can take comfort in knowing her battle is over and she is at peace.
Sheila was like a bright light
that you were attracted to. She had so many stories, and was full of laughter.
She could lift up anyone’s spirits.
It has been a long journey for her with
illness, we pray that she is at peace.
Probably telling stories and getting everyone laughing.
