She was an avid water skier, pianist, and, in her younger years, scuba diver. Shirley was also a gold medalist in volleyball in the Senior Olympics. Perhaps best known for her famous cheesecake, she was often in her kitchen at home or in her lake cabin baking and cooking for her family.

Together they were blessed with three children: Tracy (Jeannie) Dean, Randy (Sue) Dean and Kelley (Jim) Klestinske.

She was known as Grandma Shirley to nine great grandchildren: Alexis, Luke, Grace, Rhys, Jacob, Caroline, Chloe, Collin and Olivia. She was the beloved Aunt Shirley to so many. She was truly the Godly woman of Proverbs 31:26-31. She was rarely without her Bible or Hymnal nearby and constantly prayed over her children and grandchildren modeling Christ daily. Her greatest joy was spending time with her family. Their greatest joy was spending time with her. She will be missed more than words can express.
