Shirley was well-loved by her family and was known for her tender heart and compassion towards others. She was devoted to her faith. She was a stay-at-home mother caring for her children. She ran her own seamstress business and continued using these skills throughout her life. She influenced each of her daughters to take up sewing. Shirley branched out to several community jobs with many years of service for the Marshfield Clinic. She worked well into her 80's. Additionally, she enjoyed design, decorating, birds, gardening, walking, dancing, NASCAR, staying active and her family.
As the grandchildren would say: "We lost our spunky, fun loving, young hearted Grandma", "She was a positive force and her influence will live on in many", "She'll be tending to the gardens in heaven" and "Heaven welcomed one of the most amazing women we have known".
