Shirley Joan Kneemiller (nee Brazell), age 93, of Saint Louis, Missouri passed away on Monday, May 2, 2022. Shirley was born August 4, 1928.

Shirley always had a smiling face and brightened up every room she walked into. She would make you feel so special just with that smile and maybe a wink. She was so loved and will be missed by so many.
At Shirley’s request a “Celebration of Life” will be planned at a later date.
A private interment is planned at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery where she will be laid to rest with her beloved Bud.
