Shirley was the very best wife, mother, and grandmother one could have in their live. She was the worlds greatest Brewer fan and was loved by everyone whose heart she had touched. She loved the game of cribbage, making the most beautiful crafts and bus trips to the casino.

We all enjoyed the fish that were caught by Mert and prepared by Shirley.Shirley was a Cub Scout Den Mother, and volunteered for many Peace Lutheran Church functions and activities.
