Shirley Leal Obituary

1952 ~ 2018
It is with great sadness and heartache to announce that Shirley Ann Leal, born April 22, 1952, passed away on November 11, 2018 in her home in Salt Lake City. She was in a tremendous amount of pain and thankfully she is now at peace. Knowing that she was met by her Daughter Dusti Darlette Madrid, 28, who had passed away from cervical cancer in 2006 and her Father and Mother Elias and Edith Leal who were also there for the beautiful reunion. She is survived by her Daughter Gilli Ann Madrid and her Grandsons Gabriel Natal Madrid and Dusti Wolfe Norton who she would have given her life for in a heartbeat. She was the most Beautiful, Giving, Caring, Considerate, Thoughtful woman that anyone and everyone who was in her life was humbled by. There will Never be anyone in existence like her and I am so proud and grateful to have the moments and memories we shared together. She will be missed but Never forgotten. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Condolences may be shared at Serenicare.com

I knew Shirley stemming back when we were toddlers, then entered school, same grade until we Graduated from Raton High School in 1970.
Shirley will be missed and is in my prayers. I am very saddened that she passed away over 1 year ago. I wish I would have known about her passing sooner. My wife's condolences go out to her as. well. May she rest in peace and God be with her. Larry and Yvette Sanchez, Lincoln, Nebraska.

Gilli,
I just learned of your mothers death. I am so sorry for you and your family. She was a friend of mine when I lived in Utah; unfortunately we lost touch. But she called me a year or so ago, did not get to talk long, but was good to hear from her. She was a beautiful woman and I shared a lot of laughter with her.
She will be missed by everyone who's life she touched.
God Bless
