Shirley was born on January 10, 1941 in Grays, Kentucky to Samuel and Katie Ray Berry. Shirley was a very devoted daughter, sister, mother, grandma, friend, and caregiver. Shirley spent 43 years working as a Certified Nursing Assistant and took great pleasure in helping others. Shirley enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and any stranger who walked up to her.

Those left to cherish her memory include son Todd Gray of Liberty; daughter Wendy (Harold) Blanton of Liberty; brother Ronnie (Linda) Berry of Somerset, Kentucky; sister Joanne of Somerset, Kentucky and brother Sam Berry of Somerset, Kentucky. Grandchildren Susan (Wally) Zwierlein, Brandi (Mark) Reece, Perry Lear, Rodney Gray, Ryan Gray, Valerie Blanton, Vanessa (Ryan) Bolser, and Kyle Lewis with many great and great-great grandchildren and numerous others she has met, loved and took in as her own throughout the years.
She was preceded in death by her parents, three brothers; Bill, Bob, and Don Berry; sister, Inez; three husbands Perry, Gale, and James; daughter, Vicky Lear; son, Jimmy Gray; grandson Chad Gray, and many other loved ones who were close to Shirley's heart.
Shirley was one of the kindest people you could ever meet. She opened her heart and home to many children over the years and she will be sorely missed.
