(From Parker Mortuary)Shirley Jean Greninger, age 79, Joplin, went to be with her Lord, and the family and friends that have preceded her, on Friday, March 18, 2022, at Freeman West Hospital of Joplin.
Shirley was born February 15, 1943, in Leroy, Kansas, daughter of the late Charles William Reynolds and Hazel Loretta (Dahl) Reynolds.
She grew up in Kansas and moved to Joplin as a young lady where she raised her many children. Her joyous spirit, infectious personality and loving heart made her the cornerstone of her family.
She loved being a homemaker, and was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She was an excellent cook and could often be found teaching her grandchildren her special skills in the kitchen. She took pride in always attending her children’s and grandchildren’s many athletic and show events, and she loved following the great Parkwood Bears football teams of late 70’s and 80’s. Shirley was an avid fan of her Diet Dr. Pepper, breakfast at McDonalds and the Dallas Cowboys. She will be deeply missed by all that loved her!
