Born in Fulton County Indiana to Otha and Eula Brown, Shirley Spears enjoyed going to church, the movies, going out to eat and especially cooking for others. She loved to read books and making everyone laugh with her one-liners.
She is predeceased by her father, mother and sister. Survived by two daughters, three grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
A private family gathering to celebrate her life will be held at a future date.
