Shirley Washburn Obituary
Shirley was predeceased by her husband Robert C. Washburn and her beloved German Shepherd Rebel. During her marriage to Bob, Shirley resided in California and New York.

Throughout her life, Shirley had a love for animals, flowers, friends and the music of John Denver. She is survived by her family of friends, Camile Rizzo, Betty Turner, Pearla Phillips and the entire Sieban family.

I knew Shirley for just a little while but in the time I knew her I can say that she was kind, generous . and very loyal, and cherished those she thought of as friends. May God bless and keep her.
