🎬 LEGACY MAKERS® with Shirley Thiessen 🎬
This Friday night, March 24, 2026, on LEGACY MAKERS®, host Jacqueline Clements sat down with Shirley Thiessen.
In 2012, Shirley and her husband, Carey Thiessen, experienced a devastating family tragedy that reshaped her life. Rather than turning inward, she allowed that pain to fuel a deep desire to help others walk through grief with honesty, compassion, and hope.
Today, Shirley is a grief educator, the founder of CornerBend Grief Ministries, and the author of "The Little Black Funeral Dress". Inspired by the idea of Hope Heroes, her work offers practical support not only for those who are grieving, but also for the friends and loved ones who want to show up well and often feel unsure how.
What stands out about Shirley is her longing for every grieving soul to experience genuinely life-giving care. Her work is grounded, courageous, and deeply human, shaped by loss and guided by purpose.
This episode airs Friday night at 9:30 PM on YES TV across Canada.
If you have ever walked through grief, or walked alongside someone who has, this is a conversation that matters.
