Not sure what to say?

Life will never be the same. We didn't need to talk all the time to keep acquainted. We always picked up where we left off. My heart goes out to Dwight, Jean, Amy and Crystal. As well as her family. Im so sad for your loss of the most beautiful, amazing, funny, creative, kind, loving woman I have ever known. I always told her God broke the mold when He created her. Until we meet again Shirl. ❤

I love Shirley. We have been the best of friends for 43 years. Shirley was the sweetest person I know. Always a giggle, laugh, coffee, and Commodore. Her love for Dwight, her daughters and grandchildren always came first. I will miss her terribly. God must have needed a very special angel.

Deepest condolences to Shirley's family.

It is with deep sorrow we announce the passing of Shirley Rose Ginter, 69 from Crandon, WI.  She passed peacefully into eternity at her home surrounded by her family on Sunday, August 3, 2025.

 Shirley Rose Repinski was born on April 24, 1956, in Crandon, WI to the late George and Betty (Jaeger) Repinski.  She grew up and graduated from Whitewater.  She was united in marriage to Dwight E Ginter on March 1, 1975.  They expanded their family and had three daughters.  They moved and lived in several states during their early marriage.  They settled down roots in the Town of Nashville in 1991.  Shirley worked several jobs in her life and retired from Bemis/Snow River after over 30 years of service in 2021. After her retirement, it was her joy to watch her grandchildren during the summers.

Shirley loved to make soaps, lotions, candles, and crafts that she would sell at craft shows. Shirley was a woman whose life was defined by hard work and quiet kindness to everyone that knew her.  Family was everything to her. Her favorite time of year was Christmas where she always tried to make it special for everyone.  She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, relative and friend and will be deeply missed.
