With great sadness we announce the passing of Murray Godfrey Heavy Shields on April 26, 2016 in Calgary, Alberta.

Murray’s love for his family was very strong and showed in the relationships he had with his loved ones – including his brothers, sisters and cousins. He especially had a big heart for his children and grandchildren.

Murray graduated from Cardston High School in 1979. Throughout his life, he attended numerous educational facilities including SAIT, Mount Royal College, University of Lethbridge and Police College in Edmonton, Alberta. Although his studies brought him various types of jobs, his main goal and passion was in obtaining his 3rd level Power Engineering Certificate. Murray was residing in Calgary at the time of his passing. After spending most of his life on the Blood Reserve, Murray decided to relocate to the city, where there were more opportunities, resources and support.

Murray had a deep passion for sports – mainly hockey and rodeo. He played minor hockey on the Blood Reserve and in his later years, played with the Kainai Chiefs, Mount Royal Cougars, and with the Lethbridge Native Sons. He also helped coach and train the Kainai Golden Chiefs’ Hockey Club. Murray’s passion for rodeo took him many places, travelling throughout Alberta and the United States.

Murray was known for his proud and reserved nature. He was a hard worker and always gave 100% in everything he put his mind to. He valued friendship and had many friends from all walks of life. He was also known for his practical jokes – he always knew how to leave you with a smiles or a good laugh.

A Wake Service will be held at the Senator Gladstone Hall, Blood Reserve on Sunday, May 1st from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. The Funeral Mass will be held at St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Blood Reserve on Monday, May 2nd at 11:00 a.m. Interment in St. Paul’s Cemetery.
