and lifelong resident, passed away at home

Shirley Marcy was born at the hospital in
Bonners Ferry September 6, 1953, to Wesley R.
and Joy K. Marcy. She attended and graduated
from Bonners Ferry High School. Except for her
college education years in NIC for two years in
Coeur d’Alene and University of Idaho for two
years in Moscow, Idaho, she lived her life in
Boundary County.
In July 1969, she moved with her parents and
brothers into their newly constructed home on
the North side of Bonners Ferry, and continued
to enjoy that residence.
After graduation from the University of Idaho in
May 1976, with an accounting degree, Shirley
worked for nearly two decades as a banker for
two banks in Bonners Ferry. Subsequently she
worked for many years as an insurance agent and
service representative for two local insurance
agencies.
Shirley was a member of and attended Trinity
Lutheran Church, beginning at age seven, and
throughout her life served that congregation in
many capacities, including as a congregational
officer, as a choir member, and as baker of
communion bread for over twenty years.
Her knowledge of food and cooking helped to
plan, prepare, and serve many Smorgasbord
dinners. One of her favorite hobbies was
reading. She also when her grandparents were
alive enjoyed many camping trips, and visited
many lakes, streams and the beautiful mountains
in our area. Shirley also enjoyed decorating and
had a large collection of Hallmark ornaments.
Shirley neither married nor had children. She is
survived by her mother, Joy Marcy, of Bonners
Ferry, brother, Kenneth Marcy, of Moscow, Idaho,
and a brother and sister-in-law, Neal and Bobbie
Marcy, of Sagle, Idaho. She is also survived by
