In earlier years Shirley was an avid bowler.  She and Jack loved the Christmas season and would spend weeks decorating their house both inside and out.  Most of all, she loved kids.  Not just her own, but all kids.  She and Jack would sit out in front of their home during the Christmas season, dressed as Santa and Mrs. Claus to the delight of all who would stop and visit them.  She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

A Celebration of Life for Shirley will be held at a later date.
