Throughout her life, Shirley was an avid quilter and cross-stitch enthusiast who also enjoyed painting. Her artistic talents brought joy to many, but her true joy came from her beloved dogs, Coco and Roxy. She adored traveling, particularly to spend time with her daughter in Arizona.

Ron, born on January 4, 1957, in Cass City, Michigan, was known for his cooking prowess, especially his beloved Polish dishes during the Christmas season. He cherished his time gardening at their vacation home in Gaylord, Michigan, and found great satisfaction as an avid hunter and fisherman. Like Shirley, Ron had a profound love for their dogs, Coco and Roxy. He operated a successful electrical motor repair business, leaving behind a legacy of craftsmanship and dedication. Ron is survived by his daughters, Shaina and Sabrina Osentoski, his siblings Marie (the late Frank) Lasceski, Jim (Diana) Osentoski, Janice (John) Carpenter, Arnold (Joan) Osentoski, and Kevin Osentoski.
