Shirley Louise Morrison, age 93, of Cumberland, MD went to be with our Lord, Wednesday, June 4, 2025 at Cumberland Healthcare Center.

Born September 17, 1931 she was the daughter of the late Ralph and Alice (Brown) Riggleman. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Thomas L. Morrison, Sr.; daughter Roberta Kaye Taylor; daughter Cheryl Jean Fertitta; son Thomas L. Morrison, Jr.; granddaughter Heather Shirley-Marie Morrison; grandson Thomas L. Morrison, III and her second husband, Grenville Hallam.

She was married July 1, 1950 at Grace Methodist Church in Cumberland. They had six wonderful children; four girls (including a set of twins) and two boys. She was a stay-at-home mom. Her husband worked for the B & O Railroad. In 1960, the railroad work took him to Baltimore and mom became a wonderful seamstress, making hundreds and hundreds of majorette uniforms.

After the children were all grown, she and her husband had the privilege to travel the country. That is when they decided to follow a dream and in 1986 moved to Deer Lodge, Montana. They built a log cabin and resided there until 2001 to move back east where they made their home in Berkeley Springs, WV to be closer to family.

Shirley enjoyed cooking, sewing, crocheting, playing the piano and spending time with her family. She loved having bible studies at different houses with her friends. She also loved her church, Saint Mark's Episcopal Church, where she attended regularly.
