A very long time member of Trinity, Shirl was born and raised in the Milwaukee area.  She worked in Customer Service at JCPenney for a few years, then married and moved to West Bend and operated a craft business retiring when her son was born.  He is all grown up now and lives on a sailboat in Seattle.

She came to Trinity after 4 years in the office of an apartment complex where enjoying people was not part of the job description.  Helping this congregation has been such a great joy she would almost do it for free!

She also enjoys making quilts and jewelry, reading mysteries and knitting.
