Shirley "Catracha" Pierce

Shirley Pierce A.K.A Catracha, Age 16, passed away on Thursday, November 11, 2021 surrounded by her Adoptive Mother and her Bonus “Ma’s” Mireya Medina Silvagnoli and Kathy Christ. As a young kid, Shirley explored her love for the art of music and dancing. Shirley enjoyed making her famous Tik Tok videos and even doing duo’s with her friends on social media. She enjoyed doing chores or her daily tasks while blasting all of her favorite music. Shirley truly showed her love for food. She would love to try new restaurants, new foods and almost always asked for her “Sopa de Marisco” or her “Pupusas”. For years she talked about being an aspiring cosmetologist and/or doctor. Specifically becoming a pediatrician and working with young children. She truly was passionate about what she dedicated herself to and took pride in all of her hard work. Shirley was a loyal friend and would give her shirt off her back for a perfect stranger or anyone she loved. If she gave you her word she meant it.

Shirley was a humble child of faith, loyal, honorable, loving, funny and caring. She lived happily, by enjoying spending time with her friends, eating all of her favorite foods. She enjoyed exploring the city and always talked about traveling when she became an adult.

Shirley was a devoted big sister to her younger siblings, a daughter, friend, and student and all around loved everyone who crossed her path. Shirley was born in Jupiter, Florida on July 14, 2005. She is survived by her Adoptive Mother Dinara Pierce, her adoptive siblings Dierra, Jasmyn, Jaden, Keiyara, Keimare, Step Father Ebelio, Sister Camila and Brother’s Christian, Mateo, Ian and Sergio. Along with her Bonus Ma’s Mireya Medina Silvagnoli and Kathy Christ.
