Mrs. Coker passed away on Wednesday, June 1, 2022, at Russell Medical. She was born on March 3, 1937, in Sylacauga, Alabama to Arnie Dember Guinn and Grace Hulsey Guinn. She was a member of Horseshoe Bend Baptist Church and served as a pastor’s wife for many years. She was a trained and licensed cosmetologist and worked at Wilder’s Nursing Home. Mrs. Shirley enjoyed watching Wheel of Fortune daily as well as other TV shows. She lived for over 20 years battling multiple myeloma and always had a positive attitude. Her family was most precious to her, and her grands were the light of her life. While Mrs. Shirley loved her family dearly, she loved her Lord most of all.Â
She is survived by her husband of 58 years, Rev. Clyde Coker of Alexander City; daughters, Angela Hendrix (David) and Cindy Osborn (Brian) both of Alexander City, ; grandchildren, Brian Hendrix and Leah Osborn; a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins; and her best friend, Mary Smith.
She was preceded in death by her parents and brother and sister-in-law, Cecil and Mary Guinn.
