Shirley Endejan
Shirley Mae Endejan (nee Beck) was called to heaven on Tuesday, August 9, 2016 at home with family by her side. Beloved wife of 64-years of Richard R. Endejan, mother of the late Linda Kay Wootten (John), Richelle Ann Zimmermann (Paul), Laura Lee Endejan (Tom), Rebecca Jo Rose (Bryan), Ellen Marie Salsman (James), and William Richard Endejan. Her legacy as a grandmother of seventeen grandchildren and eighteen great grandchildren will continue. Dear sister, sister-in-law, aunt, great aunt, cousin, and lifelong friend.
Visitation at 9:00am followed by Mass at 10:00am Friday, August 19, at St. David’s Catholic Church, 2334 Tenbrook Road, Arnold MO 63010. Donations in her memory can be made at American Liver Foundation http://www.liverfoundation.org/
Aunt Shirley will be sorely missed by our entire family. I remember she and uncle Rich could dance the night away and I was in awe of their style and energy. She was so proud of her children, grand children and great grandchildren. I was fortunate to have spent some time visiting with her recently and she expressed how proud she was of her legacy. Sadness abounds at her loss but I know she is smiling down at all of us.
My deepest sympathy to the family!
Shirley and I became friends when Ellen and Jimmy got married. When we saw each other we never ran out of things to talk about. Namely our families. We even had her transplant in common. She received her liver two years after Jim got his new heart. My heart breaks for her family, she will be missed by many!
RIP
Beautiful eulogies today. You left us all wishing we would have known her better. A beautiful soul for sure. Take care of yourselves and continue the traditions established to keep the love moving forward.
