Shirley was a devoted wife and mother. She was a friend to all who knew her and she will be greatly missed. Shirley was an expert seamstress making clothes and costumes for her children. She loved to cook and many great memories were made over her home cooked meals with family and friends. Shirley loved reading, solving word jumbles, as well as camping, fishing, and spending time with her family.

Over the last nine years, Shirley bravely endured dialysis treatments. Even in adversity, she was cheerful, kind and caring to all she met. She put her trust in the Lord and walked out each day with humor, courage, and strength. She fought the good fight and she kept the faith.

The family wishes to thank the Hobbs Dialysis Clinic, Hobbs Fire Department EMS, Plaza Skilled Nursing Home in Lubbock and Covenant Medical Center in Lubbock.
