During her life, Shirley was a dedicated mother, wife, and traveled with, and assisted her husband, Andy, in his many business ventures and adventures. As member of Starkdale Presbyterian Church, she contributed to many church committees, also serving her community as President of the Mingo Jr. Women’s Club, a member of Mingo Band Boosters, and Hill’s School PTO. She enjoyed sharing her knowledge of everything from panning for gold to various crafts by presenting at school visits and scout meetings. She loved playing piano, decorating, and creating wreaths and floral arrangements for friends, family, and church. Shirley loved to entertain and travel with groups of friends, school chums, or her extended family from Alaska, to Western United States, to tropical islands, on cruises, by train, by car, or her husband’s private plane. While she and Andy lived in St. Thomas, VI, they repeatedly, opened their home to host family and friends, building many lasting memories.
The family would like to thank the incredible care and support of everyone at Gables Care Center and the empathy and comfort demonstrated by the staff at Valley Hospice.
