Shirley A. Padgett, age 83, of Blue Ridge, GA passed to her heavenly home on February 24, 2022 in the Union County Nursing Home surrounded by her loved ones. She was born in Ducktown, TN on June 16, 1938 to the late Varlin and Sylvia Carringer Satterfield. Shirley was a caring and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She was retired from Levi Strauss after over 30 years of service. She met many of her closest friends while working there and shared many funny and fond memories about her time working.Shirley always lived life to the fullest and loved her family beyond measure. She and her late husband, Dennis, spent much of their time "loafering" around and there was no telling where they might end up while out and about. When youd hear her say "were headed up the road", you knew they were off for a Cherokee adventure. She and her husband enjoyed going to the auctions and dancing at the music parks. A fond memory by many of her grandchildren was when she would call just to talk or check in and leave the message "I didnt want nothin" or "I was just calling to see what you were doing". Shirley never passed up an opportunity to ride out to the cemetery to visit her daughters and familys graves, even if it was just to drive by. Though she didnt like to admit it at first, Shirley fell in love with her dog, Maggie, who served as her companion and comfort in the years following the passing of her husband. Shirley never met a stranger and will be deeply missed by everyone that had the pleasure of knowing her. She was the last of her six siblings. Shirley is preceded in death by her husband, Dennis Ray Padgett; and two children, Connie Claudette Brooks and Donna Kaye Davis.
