Shirley C. Krieger was born on Saturday, September 28, 1940 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Edwin and Viola (Sunderman) Krieger. In August of 1944, the family moved to Scotland, South Dakota.  Over the years, Shirley cared for many children in the Scotland area and will be remembered as a kind and loving babysitter. She filled her home with the fruits of her many talents and her handiwork included countless knitted and crocheted items, centerpieces and doilies. Shirley made all of her own clothes and sewed many matching outfits for herself and her mother. She was also a wonderful cook and baker. Shirley was a faithful daughter and companion to her mother and they spent many happy hours together. Due to failing health, Shirley became a resident of the Avera Yankton Care Center in November of 2007, and it was there that she passed away on Tuesday, September 16, 2008 at the age of 67 years, 11 months and 18 days.
Shirley is survived by her beloved mother, Viola Auch of Scotland; two nephews: Michael (Paula) Krieger and family of Columbus, Nebraska and Chad (Tonia) Krieger and family of Yankton, South Dakota; a sister-in-law, Velma (Gary) Kuchta and family of Yankton, South Dakota; and other relatives and friends.
Preceding her in death were her father, Edwin Krieger, her stepfather, Allo Auch, a brother, Allen Krieger, an infant sister, Eileen Krieger, and an infant brother, Dennis Krieger.
