Obituary of Shelley Wynne Granger
Shelley Wynne Granger died on June 5, 2025 at Garnet Medical Center. She was 70 years old.
The daughter of the late Jane and Sterling Granger, she was born on June 20, 1954 in Memphis, TN.
Shelley brought joy and music to her community throughout her life. A dedicated employee, she worked faithfully at Flo-Jean’s Restaurant in Port Jervis until their final days. Her musical talents shone through her flute and euphonium playing as a member of the Port Jervis City Band, Broome Street Band, and Delaware Valley Choral Society, while her voice was part of the Drew United Methodist Church choir.
An accomplished crafter, Shelley’s skilled hands created beautiful works through knitting, crocheting, and needlework as a member of the Knit Wits Club at Drew. Her quick wit and infectious humor brightened every room, matching her talent for homemaking with equal measures of warmth and creativity. Nothing brought her more happiness than time with her grandchildren – where she became “one of the kids” herself during their playful adventures. Shelley’s radiant, uplifting spirit had a gift for lifting others up, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, music, and unconditional love.
Devoted mother of Teresa Mackin (Jim) and Cyrene Manegold (Jordan Mueller). Adoring grandmother of Laylah & William “Jim” Mackin. Beloved sister of Paul Nason, Wendy Hollowell (David), Jeffrey Granger (Delores), Karen Wilkerson and Stacey Granger. Cherished aunt of George, Dawn, Heather, Raymond, Stacia, Joseph, Stephen, Alicia, Julia and Annie. Dear friend of Betsy Krakowiak, Karl Sherwin and Mike Lukasik.
