Mrs. Shirley McDougal, age 86, of Murray, Kentucky, died on Monday, October 3, 2022, in Murray, Kentucky.
Mrs. McDougal was born May 10, 1936, in Marshall County, Kentucky, to the late Willie Glover and Erie Youngblood Glover. She was retired from Fisher-Price and was a member of the Westside Baptist Church.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years R.J. McDougal; sister, Mary McKeel; three brothers, W.F. Glover, John Glover and Jack Glover.
Survivors include two daughters, Renee Underwood of Nashville, Tennessee and Shannon Colson and husband Silburn of Hazel, Kentucky; one grandchild, Miranda Stephenson and husband Joshua of Bradford, Tennessee; two great grandchildren, Noah Stephenson and Sarah Stephenson both of Bradford, Tennessee. Three sisters in laws, Norma Glover of Murray, Kentucky, Jean McDougal of Puryear, Tennessee and Brenda Johnson of Shallotte, North Carolina.
Shirley loved her family and doing for them more than anything. And enjoyed helping others behind the scene.
When the great grandkids came along, she said there was a reason they called them "Great". It brought her so much joy when she got to spend time with Noah & Sarah. Shirley loved racing and was a big Nascar fan, with Rusty Wallace being her favorite driver.
She loved the Lord and going to church. Making sure her family was in church was top priority. But she and RJ also set the Christian example everyday.
She was gifted by playing hymns on the piano by ear, and also played the guitar.
