Shirley Church Obituary

Cherie & Greg, Carol, Connie, Ron & Kris, JoAnne & Bruce, Jeff & Chris, Erik, Missy, Tom and all the other grandchildren.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Over these many, many years, I've had the opportunity to know your mother. She was a wonderful and caring woman.
I know she will be greatly missed by you all, her immediate family. She will also be missed by the rest of her “extended family” and her many friends.

God has welcomed her back home and He REJOICES in her presence.
Do not shed tears for her, for she is happy, healthy and whole and she IS dancing in the presence of her Lord!
2 Corinthians 5:8 …to be absent from the body …to be present with the Lord.


Her death is not her loss, but her gain. However, her death is indeed OUR loss.
Upon the death of her body – means she now lives with Jesus, but absent from us. Knowing we can no longer see her smiling face or hear her sweet voice, feel her touch, visit, share or laugh with her, that is what WE WILL MISS.
Our loss - This is what we truly mourn.

Matthew 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

John 14:27 Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Blessed are they
that mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Jeremiah 31:13 For I will turn their mourning into joy and will comfort them and give them joy for their sorrow.

Revelation 21:3-4 …God Himself will be among them, and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain…

Although she now lives with Jesus in Heaven and he calls her by name, she also lives forever in our minds, our memories and our hearts.

May God pass his blessings to each and every one of you!
All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Carol, Nick, and the rest of Shirley's children and grandchildren, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. You will all be in my prayers.
With Love, Jessica and Family
