Shirley Jean Fairchild, age 76, of Neenah, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully on April 11, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family.
Born in Trinity, Texas on March 27, 1949, Shirley lived a life filled with faith, love, and purpose. She raised her children in Oklahoma, where she built a home rooted in warmth, creativity, and strong family values. In 2023, she moved to Neenah, Wisconsin, to be closer to loved ones.
A devoted mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend, Shirley lived a life grounded in her deep love for the Lord. Her faith was the foundation of everything she did, shining through in her kindness, her patience, and her quiet strength.
Shirley had a passion for creating and giving. She found joy in crafting, quilting, and crocheting—spending countless hours making beautiful, handmade gifts that will be treasured for years to come. More than anything, she cherished time with her family, finding true happiness in their company and love.
She is survived by her three beloved sons and their wives, as well as seven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Shirley’s legacy of faith, love, and devotion will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all who knew her.
A private Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, April 18, 2025. Valley Funeral Home has been entrusted with assisting the family during this time.
