Dorothy Shaw was born to JC and Mary Eliza Daniels on September 19th, 1944 in Dekalb, Texas. She later moved to Austin, Texas.
Dorothy was a woman of strength, wisdom, and independence.
Dorothy went to the Brackenridge School of Nursing where she graduated and soon pursued her dream of nursing.
Dorothy met Tyree Shaw while he was in the Armed Services and they married on October 1, 1967. Soon after, they moved to Brooklyn, New York where she started her career and family.
Her passions were sewing, cooking, gardening and spending time with family and friends.
Texas called her back; which led her to Houston, where she lived until her final days.
Dorothy was a member of Abiding Faith Baptist Church where she dedicated her life to carrying out God's will. While doing so, she found a group of people that shared the same interests called the “Young at Hearts”.
Dorothy is survived by a daughter; Patricia (Donald, Sr.), 2 Sons; Tyree (Monet), Julius (Sue); 8 Grandchildren, 2 Great-Grandchildren, 1 Sister, 3 Brothers and a host of family and friends.
We will miss her dearly.
Also, the family would like to especially “Thank” Sister Joyce Holmes for being a special and faithful friend to our mom, in her need, as well as ours.
We Thank You!
