Margaret Shirley left her broken-hearted family on Aug. 14, 2010. She was born Jan. 28, 1917. Margaret resided in many places, but she was best known and loved in Eureka and Kalispell. At one time, she was married to Bud Giese and resided in Eureka, where together they owned the Stockman's Bar in Eureka. She moved to Washington in 1968 where she married Leslie Shirley. She was a member of the Moose Club, Eastern Star, The Red Hat Society, and the Tobacco Valley Ridge Riders. Margaret and Les returned to Kalispell in 1976. She loved to work in her yard and gardens. She couldn't conquer the weeds and rocks, but she tamed a lot of the land. She even somewhat tamed an ornery donkey named Rosie. She loved all of her pets; of which there were many, even the ones she made from rocks and the stuffed dog that stood guard in the entrance way. She was preceded in death by her husband, Les; and her daughter, Judy Yates (Pilatti). She leaves behind her daughter, Linda Miller, of Washington, granddaughter Terry Webb of Eureka, and daughter Desiree, and grandson Tracy Webb and wife, Twila, and children, Lena, Katie and Britney of Eureka; grandson, Goose Fleming and daughter Amber of Kalispell, and granddaughter, Kim Fleming and husband Don Barta of Kila. We love you grandma. Bye the bye, for now. Friends of Margaret are invited to join her family at 2 p.m. on Sept. 18 at 555 North Hill Road in Kalispell where she will be granted her final wish to have her and Les's ashes spread on the hill overlooking their home. Afterward, everyone is invited to the home of Kim Fleming and Don Barta at 293 Hoffman Draw in Kila. You may call Kim at 257-8166 for more information.
