General Notes: Wife - Shirley BLASER

She was very involved in her local community growing up and attended Heidelberg College, Tiffin. At the end of World War II, she met fellow student, John Egbert, who thought of many creative ways to impress her. Having won her heart, they were married Aug. 22, 1948, raised three children together and celebrated 53 years of marriage before his death.

Community, friends and family were very important to Shirley and she spent her lifetime helping others and fostering many life-long friendships. As an active parishioner of Trinity United Church of Christ, she served as Director of Religious Education, helped run the 'Fish Club' after-school program and proudly sang in the church choir. When she wasn't supporting her church and family, she made a difference in her community by serving Weller Commission and volunteering for United Way.

Shirley enjoyed many wonderful friendships and active pursuits throughout her life. She was an accomplished golfer, skier, snorkeler and bridge player who loved swimming and taking classes at the YMCA. She was a member of Penthouse and enjoyed any reason to socialize, celebrate and play cards. Her infectious smile and hearty laugh warmed many a room over the years.

In retirement, she and her husband John enjoyed traveling to visit their children and grandchildren around the country and explored many other parts of the world. She especially enjoyed visiting Istanbul, Santorini, Mexico and seeing the wonder of Iguassu Falls and energy of Brazil's Carnival in Rio de Janiero. Later in life, she enjoyed traveling and spending time at Lake Erie with her companion and friend of many years, Bob King.

She is survived by her children, Jan Egbert (Ean) Sullivan, John (Beverly) Egbert Jr. and Ruth Egbert Miles; as well as eight grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren; and many friends and relatives who cherish her memory.

She was predeceased by her husband, John; brother, James Blaser; companion, Bob King; and granddaughter, Julie Anne Egbert.

Funeral arrangements and a celebration of her life will be announced later when we can gather to remember her. Engle-Shook Funeral Home & Crematory, Tiffin, is assisting the family with their arrangements.
