Our deepest condolences to Shawna's family. This news hit particularly hard because of Shawna's humility and gentle spirit. As many of already noted Shawna was brilliant and was my first technical mentor for many years at Irving - something for which i have always been grateful. Shawna's quiet but profound impact on so many is a testament to her special nature.
Peter and Rui - we are so sorry for your loss. Please accept our deepest condolences.
Jonathan and Orasa

Dear Peter and Rui-
Sylvie and I are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Shawna. Our hearts go out to you both. Shawna was a wonderful person, whom I had the privilege of working with for nearly 20 years. She went to great lengths to please others and was exceptional at her chosen career. She will be fondly remembered by all that had the privilege to work with her – and will be deeply missed by all that knew her.
I will always remember Shawna’s commitment to family and work, positive attitude and her smile.
I sincerely apologize that we could not be present at Shawna’s funeral, as we were out of the country upon hearing the news. Please remain strong in the days that lie ahead.
Shawna, rest in peace, my dear friend. We all miss you.
With our love,
Dave Mercer and Sylvie Bourgeois

I had the privilege of working alongside Shawna at Fluor for many years, and I was saddened to hear of her passing. She approached her work with unwavering dedication, tackling complex technical challenges with skill and precision. Though she wasn’t the loudest voice in the room, her words carried weight—when Shawna spoke, everyone listened.
Beyond her professional excellence, those who truly got to know Shawna discovered a warm heart and a wonderful sense of humor. She made every interaction a pleasure, bringing kindness and light to those around her. Her commitment to her career was only surpassed by her deep love for her family.
During this difficult time, my thoughts are with Peter and Rui. Shawna’s presence was a gift to all who had the good fortune of knowing her, and she will be deeply missed.

I worked with Shawna for many years at the Irving Oil Refinery. She was always reliable and conscientious - a brilliant engineer, great team player and someone you could always count on. Loved to share a good laugh. Rest in peace Shawna.

I was very sad on the news of Shawna’s passing. We were online in a meeting to discuss work three weeks ago. She shared helpful insights on the project. We ended the call by wishing each other a happy Victoria holiday. Her voice still lingers in my mind these days.
In memory of Shawna, she had always been conscientious and strived for excellence at work. She was intelligent, sincere and supportive, had always been willing to share her knowledge and experience with others who worked with her.
Thank you, Shawna, for all the supports and warmth you passed to us.
There is no illness but glory and happiness in Heaven.
We miss you.
听到Shawna去世的消息我很震惊,三个星期前我们还在一起讨论工作, 像以往一样,她与我分享了她的经验和建议。在通话的最后我们互相祝对方维多利亚节日快乐。至今她的音容笑貌还萦绕在我的心中。
在我的记忆中,她对工作兢兢业业,精益求精。她非常聪慧,真诚,乐于助人,总是乐于为同事提供帮助,分享她的经验和知识。
感恩Shawna,谢谢你的支持和友谊。
天堂没有病痛,愿光明和快乐与你同在。
我们怀念你,Shawna.

我和淑红是研究生时的室友。杨生性善良, 随和,我们从见面的一开始就成为好朋友。记得上学的时候, 每到周末, 她就回她父亲任职的商学院, 给父亲做饭, 打扫卫生。 1997 年我带着小孩去她的家里, 当时他们的儿子也是三岁,我看到杨与婆婆的关系亲密, 犹如母女。 我很少见到如此亲密的婆媳关系。我和杨睡在一张床上,我们谈了很多。那是我俩的最后一次见面。 后来他们来到了加拿大, 我和杨经常电话联络。 杨做事认真, 事业上绝对是佼佼者。 杨知识渊博, 对中医, 对经济都颇有见地。
杨乐于助人,善解人意, 她教会了我很多东西。 杨的离去, 我永远失去了一位知心的好姐妹。成为我余生永远的痛。 杨麻利的做事风格, 健步如飞的走路姿态,我永远忘不了。 杨, 你做完了世间的工, 早早回天家。 我真得好想你
Shuhong and I were roommates during graduate school. Yang was kind and easygoing, and we became good friends from the very beginning. I remember when I was in school, every weekend, she would go back to the business school where her father worked, cook for her father, and clean the house. In 1997, I visited her home with my son. Their son was also three years old at the time. I saw that Yang had a close relationship with her mother-in-law, just like mother and daughter. I rarely see such a close relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Yang and I slept in the same bed and talked a lot. That was the last time we met. Later, they came to Canada and Yang and I often contacted each other by phone. Yang was serious about her work and was definitely a leader in her career. Yang was knowledgeable and had a lot of insights into Chinese medicine and economics.
Yang was helpful and considerate. She taught me a lot. With Yang's passing, I have lost a good sister who is close to me. It will be a pain for the rest of my life. I will never forget Yang's quick work style and her brisk walking posture. Yang, you have finished your work in the world and returned to heaven early. I really miss you.

Shuhong (Shawna) was truly an integral part of our little Mandarin-speaking group in Saint John. It was a privilege to call her a friend for the past seven and a half years that we’ve lived here in NB. Peter and Rui, 我们会很想淑红。她是一个很好朋友。我们相信上帝的保证:上帝要擦掉他们的每一滴眼泪,不再有死亡,也不再有哀痛、呼号、痛苦。从前的事已经过去了。(启示录21:4)我们希望这节经文能安慰你们。

Shawna was truly my right hand during my time in Saint John. At first, she faced some challenges with English, but I understood her completely — I had gone through the same. What stood out right away was her incredible technical knowledge and wisdom, and we quickly found a way to communicate and support each other. It didn’t take long before Shawna became one of the most important people at the refinery. A lovely person, I will always remember her with deep respect and affection.
