Shirley was a woman of Baptist faith, strong and independent, yet silly and loving as well. She loved her church, her Pastor, the Lord and her KJV Bible. She loved to be with her family. She was a lover of Crocheting, "It's a Wonderful Life" & Chocolate. You would never find her house without decorations for the holidays, or without her nails perfectly painted.
Friends and family will serve as pallbearers.
