Shirley Rosier Stalvey

Mrs. Shirley Rosier Stalvey, 82, of Lake Butler died Monday morning, March 5, 2018, surrounded by her family and her friends, including her pastor and his wife Brother Danny and Sister Joyce Fouraker at North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville, FL following an extended illness.
Mrs. Stalvey was born December 14, 1935, to John Quincy Rosier and Annie Sapp Rosier, in Lawtey, FL.
Mrs. Stalvey has lived in Lake Butler for the past 56 years. During her lifetime, she held positions as a Secretary at Prudential Life Insurance in Jacksonville, FL, a seamstress at the Lake Butler Apparel Company in Lake Butler, a Machinist at General Electric, Ever Ready, and Gates Battery Plants in Alachua, FL, and Union County School Bus Driver. She retired from Gates and General Electric in 1997. The positions she was most proud of was that of wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, aunt and friend to many.
