Shirley A. (Fletcher) Heindl (July 19, 2018)

Shirley A. (Fletcher) Heindl, 77 of Greenville, passed away July 19, 2018 at her home surrounded by her family.

Shirley was born on June 6, 1941 in Greenville to the late Roscoe and Esta (Hathaway) Fletcher.

She and Thomas would play together and even played in several doubles tournaments. Shirley was an amazing cook. She loved her family and enjoyed preparing a large meal for them. She could bake anything, but her specialty was sugar cream pies, which, according to Shirley, are always best served fresh and still hot from the oven.
