Obituary

Shirley Marie Kieckhafer (nee: Mayefski), age 69, passed away on October 17, 2021, with her daughters by her side. Shirley was born on December 4, 1951, to the late Reinhold "Butch" and Arlene (Vanden Elsen) Mayefski in Neenah, WI.

Shirley lived a full life and never slowed down - even after being diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis in 2007. In her later years, she spent time painting, jet skiing, and with her grandchildren - who gave her the most joy. She was a warm, kind, and loving person, who was also independent and strong. This strength was obvious throughout her life but mostly over the past 14 years as our Pulmonary Fibrosis Warrior.
Shirley leaves behind her daughters, Sarah Kieckhafer and Kristy (Chad) Spaeth; beloved grandchildren, Ali, Olivia, and Carson; sister and brothers, Sherry (Al) Jahner, Joe (Rita) Mayefski, and Michael (Brenda) Mayefski; and nephews, Michael, Joey (Tayler), and Tommy. She is further survived by other relatives, friends, and, of course, her cats.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Reinhold and Arlene Mayefski; her aunt, Sis Asman, who was like a second mother; and many dogs and cats.
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, October 21, 2021, at 3:00 p.m. at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Bonduel, WI, with Pastor Timothy Shoup officiating. A gathering of family and friends will be held on Thursday at 1:00 p.m. until the time of the service. In lieu of flowers, the family prefers donations be directed to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation at http://www.pulmonaryfibrosis.org
