Shirley Ann Williams, 82, of Elkader, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family Sunday, March 10, 2024, at her home. A private ceremony will be held at a later date. 

 

Shirley was born Oct. 2, 1941, to Arthur and Lorine (Schultz) Handke Sr. She was united in marriage to Ray Alfred Williams on Dec. 12, 1959. Four children were born to this union.
