Shirley Ann Robertson Curtis was born on April 3, 1936, in Shawnee, Oklahoma, and left this world on May 12, 2021. She was the loving wife of Darrell Eugene Curtis, to whom she was married for 63 years. Shirley was preceded in death by her husband Darrell, and her parents Marvin and Cleo Robertson. She is survived by her daughters Cathy and Carol, and her sister Catherine and her daughters Susanne and Diane. She is also survived by many cousins, nieces, and nephews, who she adored. She was a graduate of Earlsboro High School, attended Oklahoma State University, and received her Bachelor’s Degree from East Central University. Shirley was known for many things. Her advocacy and work for children and youth, her love for OSU basketball and football, being a tireless horse show mom, her love of animals, and as a wonderful cook. Her most cherished role, however, was as a devoted wife and mother. A joint memorial will be held at a later date for Shirley and Darrell, to celebrate their lives and devotion to each other. Shirley will be dearly missed by many, most of all, by her daughters.
