Shirley cherished her winter home in Florida, where she and her husband spent over 30 beautiful years, and held a fierce, steadfast love of the New York Mets. She lived each day with a quiet strength and unwavering devotion to her family. Shirley was a pillar of love and loyalty to her children, grandchildren, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.

The values Shirley lived by will remain in the hearts of many.
