Shirley was a 1947 graduate of Madison High School.

"Shirlea" worked until the age of 86, loving the socialization and hard work that kept her young. She loved anything and everything pink, as can be attested by her home decor. She loved cherubs, her dog Savanna, shopping till others with her dropped and "stopping for a burger" whenever out and about. Shirley was predeceased by her parents, seven sisters and their husbands, her husband Maurice, her son Gary, her grandson Michael and several nieces and nephews. She is survived by her son Terry, her daughter Susan, daughter-in-law Sue, grandchildren Teresa, Sarah, Joseph (Samantha), Cameron and Connor, sisters Isabelle (Penny) Strain, Sylvia Persons, Sally Fairbrother and numerous nieces and nephews, as well as her dog Savanna.
