Comments: Hey Miss Sheehan! A Belated Happy Birthday!!! You were one of the best teachers that I ever had! Even though I kept trying to sell you "a lot". Never did go into Real Estate. You are often in my thoughts and I often wonder what ever happened to your niece, Audrey. Take care and God bless.
Comments: You were my model as a teacher. I used your saying "you only have to die and pay your taxes" many times. Happy birthday.

Comments: I am wishing Ms. Sheehan a very happy birthday. Of all the teachers I have had over the years she had the most profound effect on who I became. I don't know if she remembers me but I certainly will never forget her.
Comments: HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS SHEEHAN! from 3 decades of Shilobrats. Today is Miss Sheehan's (fill in the blank) birthday. We could give you her email address, but don't want to overload her computer. We know she has more memory than a computer anyway.
So post your birthday greetings and any stories you may have to stir those memories, maybe we can still make her blush a little...
Comments: Just read in the Brandon Sun obituary page that former teacher and principal at Princess Elizabeth High School Doug Birch passed away on Nov. 19th. My sympathies go out to his son Phlyp.
Comments: I swam with the Shilo Goldeyes back in the 60's, I think about 65,66. I sure remember a lot of the names I saw on this website. My dad, Major B. Watch used to help out at events, usually as the starter. I don't know what made me Google the goldeyes, but it brought back memories. Hello to all!

Comments: I have lived in CFB Shilo twice in my life time. The first time just after WWII ended 1945-46 I was a little girl when my family moved into Hut B 3. It was right across from the Sick Bay which we now call a hospital. I had one brother Jimmy Farewell when we moved in here. We were the third family to receive a PMQ. My new address was 41 Frontenac Cres. Shilo... My dad was Albert Farewell he served in RCHA both first and second battalions for 32 years. My mom was Anne Farewell. We lived in Shilo till my dad left for Korea on the day King George died. When he returned from Korea we where posted to Prince Albert Sask. And then my new brother arrived in 1955 Rodney Farewell, who later also served in the Canadian Armed Forces. We then where posted Germany where I met my husband Jim McMeeken who was Canadian Solider and we married and had our first child there. And my second time living in Shilo was with my husband and two children. My second child was born in Brandon Manitoba. And then off to Base Borden we went and my third and last child was born in Collingwood ON. while waiting for our PMQ at Base Borden. So Shilo is what I consider my roots as an army brat and army wife...I have travelled the world but always been a prairie girl!
