Shirley was a longtime homemaker and member of Oakview Presbyterian Church, where she was very active, especially with the church choir. She was an excellent seamstress and cook, with her specialty being wedding receptions, where she prepared and decorated many beautiful cakes. She loved traveling and did so as frequently as possible and when she was home she loved to spend time working in her yard and her garden. She was a caregiver to anyone who needed it and was a very important member of her church and community, loved by all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her husband; parents; two sons, Wayne Dabbs and Carl Dabbs; and an infant daughter.

      The funeral service will be conducted at 2:00 PM Thursday, February 23, 2012 at Oakview Presbyterian Church by Pastor Bob Hillman and Mr. Dwight Chandler.
