Shirley Marie Reynolds, age 74, of Russellville, passed away on Thursday, September 08, 2022, at Helen Keller Hospital ER.
Shirley was dedicated to her family and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her world. She loved planning and going on vacations with the whole family. She loved to read, and she had numerous books. She was often seen with her little dog and best friend who had a big dog attitude, Willow, who meant everything to Shirley. She has missed her high school sweetheart and husband of 54 years since his death exactly one year ago. They are together again, and her family finds comfort with that and will cherish the many memories of their lives.
