Shirley was a dedicated teacher. She began her distinguished career at the age of 19.

Upon retirement she enjoyed spending time with her Children, Grandchildren and many friends, shopping, going to exercise and feeding every single dog in Taylor Creek Park. She will be deeply missed by the many people who were touched by her quiet, unassuming kindness and generosity.

We celebrate Shirley's life as she rests next to her mother, father and husband. Her loss is a sadness but her life is a celebration of the promise Hashem granted us. G-d made his face shine upon us, blesses us and gives us peace as we thank him for this extraordinary woman. We accept his will and the grace upon which we exist.

My beautiful sister will be missed. She leaves a legacy of how to not quite. My sons considered her as a second mother. Many wonderful times were spent together as a family. In my heart I feel a hole. Shirley has been with me my whole life. Now she can rest in peace.
