Shirley Anne Potts, 77, died peacefully at her home in Burlington, WA amongst her family on February 14, 2021.
Shirley was born to the late William and Evelyn Glasser on August 27, 1943 in Crookston, MN. She moved to Tacoma, WA as a young teen and graduated from Franklin Pierce High School in 1961.
Shirley is survived by her husband Garry of Burlington; her children, Sean Welfringer of Federal Way, Kim (Mike) Krzycki of Maple Valley, and Ginger (Greg) Masse of Colorado Springs, CO; her step-children Nick (Shannon) Potts of Toledo, OH, and Lindsay (Sean) Donovan of Lake Stevens; her grandchildren Taylor, Nicole, Shelby, Sawyer, Abby, Emry, Jackson, Evan, Cooper and Trinity; her siblings Kenneth Glasser of Spanaway, Marlene Walrath of Tacoma and Nancy Walz of Brookfield, WI; her numerous and beloved nieces and nephews.
She is preceded in death by her parents William and Evelyn Glasser, and two infant sons.
Shirley was very giving of her time and talents within her local community. She spent countless hours every year making crafts and assisting with auctions to raise funds for causes near to her heart, most recently with the LaConner Museum of Northwest Art and her Chapter HP P.E.O. Sisterhood. She cherished time with family and friends, and was truly a light in the lives of all who knew her.
A memorial service for Shirley will be planned later this summer.
