Ms. Shirley was a strong and independent woman with a spunky attitude. She had a love for Syfy and scary movies but would keep the tv and nightlight on as she drifted off to sleep. She enjoyed going to the casino it was like a second home to her. Ms. Hill loved shopping for shoes, and buying every 2-piece color velour jogging outfit. Shirley loved traveling with her daughter Lori to visit the beautiful oceans. Although, she had aquaphobia and could not swim there was no place like “home sweet home.”
Shirley Aletha Hill loved being a grandmother spoiling and loving all of her grandchildren. She shared her views on how she did not like rap music; but would hum off-key to her favorite songs like “Take Me to the King.”
