Shirley Ethel Woolf Balls, daughter of John Alma and Ethel Woolf Balls, passed away on February 20, 2015 in Chandler, Arizona.
She was born November 17, 1924 in Logan. She was raised in Cache Valley.
She married Ivan Smith Haslam in the Logan LDS Temple in 1943. Together, they raised six daughters: Vicky (Robert) West, Ann (Blaine) Flinders, Cynthia (Steven) Johnson, Robyn (Gery) Nielsen, Jill (Mark) Ballif, and Tracy (Kevin) Hess. Ivan passed away on July 16, 1978.
Shirley has thirty-one grandchildren and seventy great-grandchildren who remember her for weekends at the cabin, winters in the Arizona sun, wit, jokes, colorful stories, and endless candy supply.
She married Kendall R. Oman on May 24, 1986. Ken had three children, Jory (Nancy) Oman, Eldon (Cindy) Oman, and Ellee Rands.
Shirley was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many callings. She and Ken served missions in the Atlanta Georgia and Washington D.C. temples. Ken passed away on October 19, 2005.
Shirley kept the mailman busy, never missing a chance to send birthday cards to her family and friends.
She played pro softball for Salt Lake Shamrocks; she was a golfer, tennis player, and quite the shopper.
While we will try and heed her advice to "never get old", we can't wait to see her again with a body that will keep up with her ever keen mind.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, March 14, 2015 in the Bountiful Forty-Third Ward Chapel, 1000 North 100 West. Family and friends may visit on Friday, March 13, 2015 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at Lindquist's Bountiful Mortuary, 727 North 400 East, and one hour prior to the services at the church on Saturday.
