Alice Marie Studer passed away at Virden HealthCentre, Virden, Manitoba, Friday, June 5, 2015 in her 92nd year. She is now at peace and reunited with Henry.
Alice was born at Isabella, Manitoba to Alva and Marion Brad. She received her education there and that is where she met and married Bill Shurvell. Bill passed away in 1971, shortly after they moved
to Elkhorn. There they raised their family. When the family was grown and away from home, Alice went back to school and received her training as a Licensed Practical Nurse.

Alice and Henry spent many happy years camping with Good Sams, dancing, going on many trips, as well as an Alaska cruise. Mom enjoyed curling when in Elkhorn and later watching it on TV. She also had time for her family
and enjoyed spending time with them, as well as with her many friends.
