Shirley married Irvin Galloway in 1952 and through the Air Force they lived in Georgia, Virginia, Arizona, Okinawa, Texas and New Jersey, finally settling in Hampton, VA.
She worked all her life and her greatest joy came from helping others. For the last several years, this caring led her to share her passion of cooking by providing loving meals to the Community Soup Kitchen of Wilson. She was also devoted to her church family at Forest Hills Baptist Church where she enjoyed fellowship with Prime Timers. In her spirit of giving, Shirley agreed to be an organ donor.
In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to Community Soup Kitchen. PO Box 2091, Wilson, NC 27894.
