Shirley Grange Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Lips have I, to kiss thee, too, in friendly persuasion
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
And come with me, for thee I love"
On September 12, 2025, Shirley L. Grange was reunited with her husband and love of her life, Thomas J. Grange. Shirley will also be joining her beloved mother and father, Harry H. Klein and Ella Piehl, whom she lost at such a young age.
Shirley will always be remembered for her kind, generous heart and beautiful soul, and as she was affectionately known, she was a shining light in the lives of all who knew her. Shirley was a passionate homemaker and ensured there was always a delicious meal on the table every night, and will forever be accredited for bringing family together from near or far for holiday dinners. Above all, Shirley was a wonderful wife, and an amazing, loving, caring mom and grandmother; her passing has left a void in the hearts of her family, friends, and many more whose lives were touched by her.
As her husband Tom used to say to her every night before he closed his eyes, "te amo por siempre y para siempre" (I love you forever and always).

"Your body is laid to rest, so that your soul may soar. Free from the burdens of your life. You shall never truly die, for your memories are engraved upon our hearts, for us all to safeguard and fondly remember."
May your rest be a peaceful slumber, soothed by the warmth of your loved ones, and lulled by their voices, calling you Mother, never for the last time

Like so many of Tom's friends from MAZ6R, I never knew her personally. But through Tom's talking about her, her life, and his memories of her, I felt like I knew just a little bit of her. Her loss has been felt by everyone who knows Tom. Godspeed, Mrs. Grange. Sere

I did not have the pleasure of meeting Shirley, and have only just met Lana. The loss of a parent is an experience only those who've gone through it can truly understand, for words will never properly be able to convey.
I am truly sorry for your loss and I wish you the speediest acceptance and swiftest beginning towards the long process of sorting and storing your feelings and working through these painful moments in time.
