Shirley loved cooking for her boys, who were her pride and joy, and she always found ways to make them laugh. She had a special place in her heart for her puppies, if she made herself a sandwich, she made one for them too. She enjoyed planning family vacations months in advance, making sure every detail was perfect, and she treasured the time spent together. She was dedicated to her job and loved her Sam’s Club family, forming lasting friendships that she held close to her heart.
