She was born May 7, 1955 in Middlesex County, Perth Amboy, NJ.
Shirley was a hardworking woman. She was a laborer, a great cook, and a talented gardener. She loved

Monast residing in Illinois, and Kathrine Richards of SC. She is also survived by three grandchildren
Jaxton Bell, and Serenity Kirby, both of WV, and Megan Page residing in SC. She is also survived by one
granddaughter, Aria Page of SC.
Shirley loved her family dearly. She is survived by her brothers Roger, George, and Peter and her sister
Dorothy. In heaven, she joins her brothers, Jimmy, Gary, Roland, and sisters, Sandy and Kathy. Her
mother and father, Robert and Ethel are also in heaven.
Special thanks to the community of people in Grantsville that provided support to her during the past
few months. She loved the town of Grantsville because of the amazing people. Special thanks to all the
Roane County Home Care nurses, for going above and beyond while caring for her, especially Kim Hatts.
Also, thanks to the Hospice workers that helped us near the end.
