Shirleene M. Lipsey, slipped away from us to the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on October 9, 2017. Shirleene was born August 8, 1931 in Henderson County, Texas. She was a longtime resident of Pasadena, Texas and a faithful member of Sunset United Methodist Church. “Miss Lipsey”, as she was known to both parents and students alike, was a beloved kindergarten teacher at both Parks and Stuchbery Elementary for over 40 years. Prior to her career in education she worked at First Baptist Church Pasadena as a secretary to former Pastor Dr. L.D. Morgan. Shirleene was a consummate professional and always impeccably dressed.
Shirleene loved her family, her students, and of course her dogs. She was a sweet kind-hearted, loving person who will be greatly missed by all of those who ever had the pleasure to have known her. Shirleene is survived by the love of her life Carl honored to have been married to for 39 years, sister Jerry Laughlin, nephews Jim, Jeff, and Jon Laughlin, her step- daughters, Pamela Lipsey (Nathan Sietz), Joan Cantwell (Jeff Cantwell), and grandson Jameson Cantwell.
Please join Shirleene’s family on Thursday, October 12, 2017 at 11:30am to reflect on her life at her visitation. A service celebration of her beautiful life and legacy will begin at 12:30pm in the chapel of Grand View Funeral Home with Pastor Keith Swatzell II, officiating. Concluding services Shirleene will be laid to rest at South Park Cemetery, Pearland, Texas.
