dren. Shirley became the owner of Manzella Trucking Excavating with her husband. Shirley lost her daughter Nancy in 1980 and her husband in 1983. At that time, she retired her business to her sons. Shirley continued to take care of her children as adults with her cooking and listening to their every need. Holidays were very special to Shirley with her house always decorated for every holiday for her children and grandchildren. From birthdays to holidays it was always at Grandma's house. She will be missed greatly, but she will always be with us. Shirley's favorite music consisted of Tom Jones, Christmas music, Frank Sinatra, Engelbert Humperdinck and Julio Iglesias. She was loving, giving, caring, funny and a spitfire. The family wants to give a special thanks to the nurses, care assistants, the respiratory team physician's assistants on 3400 at Park Ridge Hospital. They made a very big difference in our mother's life and the families. We thank you again.
