Shirley Jean Gamble

Shirley Jean Gamble entered the gates of heaven Friday, November 2, 2018.
She fought the good fight, she finished the race and she kept the faith (2
Tim. 4-7)

She was born to the late Howard and Beulah Peeler in Lawndale NC on November
5, 1935 and shared her childhood on a farm in Lawndale with her beloved
sisters, Dorothy and Pat.

After graduating from Polkville School, she enjoyed working in the textile
and automotive industry. Shirley later opened and operated her own daycare.
Her hands stayed busy in her later years with sewing, needle crafting,
puzzling, gardening, reading, listening to southern gospel music and loving
her family.
In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her husband, David;
a son and daughter, Susan and Ray.

Left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Judy Cook and husband Ken. Her
grandsons Roman, Gabe and Troy and wife Kristin; and her granddaughter,
Jennifer and husband, Chris. She also leaves a beautiful legacy of faith to
her great grandchildren Tucker, Jack, Azelia, Maddox, Clay, Cody, Camryn and
Brooklyn. Her sisters Pat Hastings and husband Bill as well as Dorothy
Wehunt and husband, W.C. are also left to celebrate her home going. She will
also be greatly missed by her little dog, Gracie, who was her constant
companion.

She has been a member of Northside Baptist Church for over forty five years
and plans are to receive friends beginning at 6P on Tuesday, November 6
which will flow into a beautiful music celebration of her life at 7P. A
private graveside service will be held on Wednesday, November 7 at 11AM.

Shirley believed in supporting ministries that furthered the great
commission which is to " Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matt.
28: 19-20). So in lieu of flowers, please give to your local church or a
ministry that furthers God's kingdom in her name.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Stamey-Tysinger Funeral Home & Cremation
Center, Fallston.
