CHRISTENSEN, Sheila Olive

Sheila Olive Christensen
Feb. 9, 1927 – Dec. 18, 2020

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our matriarch, Sheila, from natural causes in Abbotsford, B.C.
Sheila is predeceased by her devoted husband of 70 years, Nils, and her son, Erik. She will be lovingly remembered by her daughters, Marit and Randi, her four grandchildren and her five great-grandchildren.

Born in Arlesey, England, Sheila lived in England and Egypt with her parents, and Norway and Holland with her husband, before the couple settled in Canada to raise their family.

Sheila had an insatiable curiosity and the soul of an adventurer. One of her finest qualities was the wonderful ability to find delight in every day and to have such gratitude in her life. She was a strong, steadfast and inspiring woman and we loved her deeply.
