COLLEEN SHEARDOWN

Two weeks ago today, nearly 600 people united at St. Barnabas Anglican Church to honour the life of this very much loved lady. Led by the Blue Knights Motorcycle Club, the rumbling sound of the bikes echoed as she was taken to her final place of rest.

My bike, the road and I are free…
The last ride the Lord allows me,
I pray my soul He does keep.

Her Life Honoured.
