Shirley Warner Obituary

Shirley Warner, 71 Shirley (Maloughney) Warner, beloved wife, mother, sister, mother-in-law, grandmother and friend, died at home on Sunday, Jan. 1, 2006.

Shirley enjoyed time being with her family, caring for her grandchildren, crocheting, knitting, summer with family and friends at Ennis Lake, ceramics, and was a devoted board member of the Spirit of Columbia Gardens Carousel.
