Ms. Nadeau was born on June 11, 1938, in Worth County to the late Winton Levi Green, "W. L.," and Annie Mae Gunn Green. Along with her parents, she was also preceded in death by her son Ronnie Flanders. Shirley lived a long and eventful life and faced many challenges and met them in her own way. Though her relationships were sometimes complicated, she remained a constant presence in the lives of those closest to her.
Shirley retired as an Avon Sales Representative. She loved gardening, fishing, feeding, and watching birds. She held a special fondness for her regal White Glad flowers and the Hummingbirds and Cardinals that visited her beautiful garden.
She is survived by her son, Donnie Flanders, daughter, Ann Taylor, granddaughter, Christy Hart, grandson, Kyle Fulp, great granddaughter, Hannah Hart, and her sisters, Jeanette Marcellino, Judy McCraw, and many nieces and nephews.
Her passing marks the closure of a unique life, and she will be remembered in the ways that were meaningful to each person who knew her.
