Shirley Louise Cangemi, of Maple Heights, Ohio, passed away peacefully on November 5, 2025, at the age of 93. Beloved mother of Susan (David) Giammarco, Lisa (Robert) Lanzara, and the late Robert and Anthony Cangemi. Cherished grandmother of Jason Cangemi, Jeffrey (Arelis) Cangemi, Tom (Sarah) Cangemi, Nicolas Giammarco, Anthony (Krystal) Lanzara, Marissa Lanzara (fiancé, Shane), and Angela Cangemi. Proud great-grandmother of seven.

Shirley lived a vibrant and loving life. She was exceptional at sewing and cooking, loved exercising, roller skating and was an animal lover. Her Mustang car was a joy for her and a reflection of her spirited and lively personality. She had a deep love for astrology, finding comfort and wonder in the stars that guided her through life. Above all, Shirley deeply cherished spending time with family and friends, truly treasuring togetherness and devoted herself to those she loved. Her warmth, family-oriented way, and laughter will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Family and friends are invited to gather in celebration of Shirley's life on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM, with a prayer service at 6:00 PM, at Busch Funeral Home, 7501 Ridge Road, Parma, Ohio 44129. A private burial will be held at Hillcrest Cemetery in Bedford, Ohio.
