Shirley Winnifred Johns, 87, of Fairfax, Virginia, passed away on August 1, 2019. She was born to Leona and Daniel Miller in Woodbury, Pennsylvania.

Shirley was preceded by her loving husband in 2011 and son-in-law, Thomas in 2007.

Her strong Christian faith provided a solid foundation for her life and she maintained a warm, loving, and welcoming home. Shirley had a wonderful smile that could light up a room. She loved children and was a babysitter to many children over the years. Her influence will forever remain in the lives of all who knew her.
