Employed at Block Institute in Brooklyn for a number of years, Shirley was a dedicated employee who strived to improve the quality of life for individuals who suffered with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Shirley enjoyed watching television shows that featured the, ”Oldies But Goodies of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s” and could often be heard singing or humming one of her favorite tunes.

She found pleasure in attending Toomey Abbott Non-denominational Religious services, as she enjoyed the biblical Christian teachings and communing with others.
