Family to celebrate SHAW's long life
Markdale woman dies at age 108
By Scott DUNN, Thursday, November 09, 2006
Mabel SHAW's death Monday after 108 years of life puts her among a select few.
The Markdale resident made it into the 100-club, an exclusive group of folks that Statistics Canada estimates number around 3,795 - all but 740 of them women.
It's cause for celebration, not just for living so long, but doing so with health and faculties intact, said her 83-year-old daughter, Velma SPENCER, who lived with her mother in a bungalow. That's where Mabel SHAW died, surrounded by family.
SPENCER said she's celebrating her mother's life, not mourning her loss, for heartfelt reasons shared by SHAW's large family which includes 11 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren.
"This is a celebration for us. Absolutely no question. We're all in total agreement about that," she said by telephone Wednesday. "Just the fact that we were incredibly fortunate to have her for this long."
SPENCER says the family agrees one key to SHAW's remarkably long life was their mutual love. Without that, "she would have seen it as a sign that we had given up on her and I'm sure she wouldn't have lived."
Both she and her mother were in good health, so they lived together comfortably. SHAW never went to the hospital when her health started to fail in September. Her family, including a niece who is a nurse, took care of her.
SHAW told The Sun Times in July, days before her 108th birthday, that she simply takes life one day at a time.
Raised on a farm, Mabel SHAW worked as a mother's helper and at several jobs before marriage, then never worked again outside the home, SPENCER said.
In the early years of their marriage, Earl SHAW carried the mail in Thornbury and Clarksburg, at first on horseback, then with a horse-drawn bus. Earl worked on other people's farms, including his son's, until he bought his own 50 acres in his 60s. He died in 1993 in his 90s.
"Age is only a number as far as I'm concerned. Just don't think about it. It's not going to change anything, believe me," SPENCER said. "And my son-in-law once told me when I questioned him, he said well, he didn't care for the alternative."
Mabel SHAW will be seen at the May Funeral Home in Markdale today from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Her funeral is to be held Friday at 1: 30 p.m. with interment to follow at the Markdale Cemetery.

Daughters, Barbara and Rosemary, are particularly grateful to all the wonderfully caring staff on the Reminiscence floor of Sunrise, and to Linda and Diane, who helped keep her company on a daily basis. Respectful of her wishes, there will be no funeral service; instead family and Friends at Sunrise will gather to remember her graceful presence in all our lives.
