Memories and Condolences
for Shirley Baty
May 8, 2011
It was scary to know that Shirley knew everything about her son, Rank, and his closest freinds. Some how we told her everything as we were trying to grow up. We confided in her because she was interested and never would get to mad, but would tell us what was right and what was not and laugh with us at our stupidty. We all loved her like our own mother. When mine died a few years ago Shirley said she was still here and would take over if I needed her.
We all loved Shirley and will miss her.

My mom, Ella Hadland, use to say to Shirley, before their Tuesday play, "What's the hot tip for today?" They both LOVED golf. I told my mom, two days before she passed away, on May 3rd, that my dad, Big Jack, and Shirley Baty were waiting for her on the 1st hole tee box. I have such fond memories. Lots of love, Diane Hadland Peters

Auntie Shirley, you were one of a kind, and I loved you! Thank you for the talk about my mom, sharing memories, and for sounding just like grandma Madge to me. I am so excited you will be reunited with family and friends. Please give big hugs to Grandma Madge, Auntie Peg and my mom... love always, Laurel

Tho we were separated by miles, as we now live in Kentucky; Shirley was always in our thoughts and prayers. We will miss her dearly. We do believe that she is now with Jack, Nancy, Madge, Peg and all their other family members in God's Heavenly House.

Shirley was married to my oldest brother, Jack. They had a long and loving marriage and I was always grateful to Shirley for giving Jack such a wonderful life. Beyond that, Shirley was my friend and very often my confidant. She always seemed to have the right answer for every situation. She was truly special. Although I now live in Arizona, we have kept in touch and I will miss her deeply.

Shirley was a second "MOM" to us, always a hug and a kiss. We, as all whom were blessed to know her will miss her greatly. Truly a wonderful and beautiful person. All our love, Moe & Pam

I cleaned for Shirley for the past 15 years. I always got a hug when I left and great advice. One time I broke a vase, turns out it was a little cheap one but I was devastated, she said to me "Robin it's just stuff!". She always made me feel better and was there for me when my mom and grandma died, I will miss her terribly!
