    • Shirley Ann McPhail, age 83, passed away on February 8, 2021. She was born in Brigham City, Utah to Rulon and Helen Orwin. She married Kenneth McPhail on February 23, 1957, and they lived happily until his death in 2020. They were the proud parents of 5 children- Brenda (Brent) Wyman, Marla (Dave) Folau, Brian (Angela) McPhail, Teri McPhail, Mindy (Darin) Snow. They were especially proud of their 16 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren.

    Shirley had such a sweet, loving, and nurturing disposition. She loved crafting, decorating, and making her house a home. She will always be remembered and admired for the love she showed her family and her many years of taking care of everyone. She enjoyed children of all ages and often took in and cared for a few extra. Her kids and grandkids especially loved the family parties, late-night talks, being silly, and laughing until she had tears rolling down her cheeks.

    A private graveside service will be held at Larkin Sunset Gardens on February 11, 2021.
