Shirley was an avid seller on Ebay, loved reading books, and relied strongly on her faith in God in everything she did in life. Nothing brought a smile to her face more than to teach her children about Jesus and helping them to have a relationship with him. She cherished the smiling faces of all her children and being a grandmother to all her beautiful grandchildren.
She is proceeded in death by her parents and her husband John. She will be greatly missed by family, friends, and the community.
