Shirley Grace Trautman, 76, of Lincoln University, died peacefully at her home on Thursday, Nov. 5.
Born 1944 in Mountain City, Tenn., Shirley was the daughter of the late George T. Forrester and Frances M. Forrester.
Shirley was known for her quiet and kind personality. She put everyone else first. She loved to cook for her family and made every holiday special. Her deep love for her “boys” was known by all and her family was her focus. Shirley loved a nice warm fire in their wood stove and enjoyed sitting outside watching birds, nature, and beautiful flowers bloom in the sunshine. She enjoyed shopping, the holiday seasons and always looked forward to the first snowfall. She worked very hard her entire life and had a long career at Lau Electronics, Inc. and then retired from Genesis HealthCare of Kennett Square.

Trautman, of whom she shared 57 years of marriage; her sons, Richard (Lisa), Daniel (Kathy), and Michael; as well as her brother, Lee Forrester; and her 4 grandchildren, Daniel Jr, Nicholas, Grace, and Ryan.
