Shirley Connors Obituary

I CHERISH THE LATE WARM CHICAGO NIGHTS SITTING AND TALKING OVER ALL THE NEIGHBORHOOD MEMORIES WITH MY DEAR FRIEND. HER SMILE LIVES FOREVER IN MY HEART. BETSY (LEONARD) RHEIN

Thinking about you all tonight as we approach 2016

I was saddened to hear about Mrs. Connors passing. She was a great influence, friend and confidant to me and I learned much from her. I will miss sending holiday and Saint Patrick's day cards to her. Every time I see a Waterford heart necklace, a two dollar bill or smell Cesar's Woman cologne, I will think of her fondly.
Rest in peace Shirl. When I play the layer cake game at bingo, I will know that is you sending a wink and a prayer.
Thank you for being someone I looked up to and was was lucky enough to call a friend.

Dear Colleen, Maureen, Noreen and the extended Connors family,
I was sorry to hear of your mother's passing. The loss of her presence will be missed by all who knew her. Your mom always made people feel welcome and she truly cared.
You will all be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

What a wonderful woman. A wonderful lady. Prayers to the entire Family!

Norm and I remember the nights we sat on the Connors porch 'til the sun went down. We will miss visiting her when we come to Chicago. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Connors Families, Noreen, Maureen and Colleen.
Love, The Rhein's Norm, Betsy, Denise and Jim

Norm and I remember all the nights we sat on the front porch 'till the sun went down. Our prayers and thoughts are with your Families,Noreen, Maureen and Colleen. God has a special place in heaven for your MOM.
Love, Norm, Betsy, Denise & Jim

My Dear Aunt Shirley... Always greeted me with obnoxious smooches and a 50 cent piece. I'll miss getting both of them from her. Bless her heart and rest her soul.

I will miss her walking into Schallers with her wonderful smile, big HELLO and always thoughtfully inquiring of family members. She will be remembered as a hardworking parishenor and pilar of our community (and, oh ya..Her never ending generosity with her $2 bills)
Bye Shirley and May God Speed.

Shirley was such an important & influential part of anyone who belonged to Nativity parish.
prayers & hugs to the entire family during this difficult time

Our deepest sympathy to the entire Conner's family on the loss of Shirley. Her smiling face always greeted you, at Nativity of Our Lord Church, when either going to purchase mass cards or make arrangements for use of the Church for special occasions. She was so dedicated to all in her Beloved Bridgeport Community. May she rest in peace in the House of the Lord! We will remember her and all family members in our prayers.

To the entire Connors family -

Shirley was one of a kind. A class act, unforgettable, spunky and full of wisdom. I felt extra special when she gave me her signature $2 bill. She has a permanent place in your hearts and will be missed dearly. I trust that Shirley was welcomed into heaven by her husband Jim and son Fran. Please accept my deepest sympathy. May she rest in peace.

Sending love, hugs and prayers.
Molly, Sean & Michael Galvin

Rest in Peach, Shirley. You were a great friend. We will keep you in our prayers. Jim and D.D
