In 19 something, Shirley married Carl Miller and corrected that mistake in a hurry.  End of that saga!!

She worked at Twin City Hospital for 30 years and loved the people and the job.  She was active in PTA at Uhrich St. and Trenton Ave. when her children were in grade school.  After retiring, she worked a short time in Dr. Kagaoans’ office.  Shirley enjoyed her children, her home and people in general.

Shirley has 4 grandchildren and many great grandchildren.  Her children were and are so very special to her and they showed her in so many ways that she was special to them.  Take time to enjoy those around you and your life.  It goes by so fast.  Her children have made her very proud to be their “Mom”.  She hopes to see all of you special people again someday!! God Bless.
