Surrounded by his loving family at Georgetown Hospital, Shane went peacefully home to be with our Lord and Saviour on February 16, 2009, in his 47th year, after a short battle with cancer.
Born in Sydney, N.S., he was the son of Hazen and Marie (Bunn) Usher. He is also survived by his loving “other motherâ€, Faith Usher; his childhood sweetheart and love of his life, Hilda (Ash), to whom he had been married for 25 years; his heart’s pride and joy, daughters, Deanna and Kelly, both at home; his brothers, Billy (Rosalie), Gardiner Mines, Melvin (Laura), River Denys, Chris (Melanie), Calgary; his sisters, Arlene MacDonald (Paul), Valley Mills, Anna Usher of Scotsville, N.S. and son-in-law to be, Justin Maguire, Georgetown; his in-laws, George and Annie May Ash, Linconville, N.S. and their extended families, many special nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
Shane was predeceased by his brothers, Glenn (1968) and Hazen Jr. (1990) and his grandparents, Dolly and Billy Bunn and Margaret and Joe Usher. Shane was a much sought after and respected interior designer and took great pride in his work. He touched the lives of many people with his special ways, even some he never met in person but through his Cape Breton.com family, who all loved and respected him. They will miss his contribution to the site. Shane will live on through our special memories with the way he touched our lives.
