A little about Shirley….She was strong, bold, smart, spiritual, sassy and always had something to say! She was a fighter, a protector, always showing her love for family and friends. She enjoyed serving her church and especially loved helping others. Her fashion sense was always in top form, starting with her church hats, jewelry, suits, even down to her heels.

She attended and excelled in the King George Public School System.

Shirley sought out and found the perfect job for herself as a teacher's aide for the King George County School System. Continuing with her education, Shirley took up presence at L.E. Smoot Memorial Library; there she worked as a Library Aide for twenty-eight years; not only did she work hard at her job, she also worked harder for her church and community. She was the Sunday School Secretary, Church Clerk, Vice President of the Gospel Chorus and President of the Angelic Choir at Peoples Union Baptist Church.

Shirley was an active advocate for the Fredericksburg Area Sickle Cell Association.
