Obituary: Shirley Louise High, 89, came into this world in the midst of a tornado in Howells, Nebraska on 22, 1925 and left us in the midst of the Magic Valley storms on 23, 2014. Shirley was born to Ben and Friedaricka Remm at the family home during a tornado that destroyed all of the farms out buildings. She was the fifth of their seven children. She walked (apparently it was always snowing) to the local one room school, where, after she graduated, she became the teacher of all twelve grades. She taught there several years until moving to Casa Grande, Arizona to join her parents and younger siblings who had moved earlier for health reasons. It was in Casa Grande, helping her mother as a short order cook, that Shirley met the love of her life, Bob. married in 1947 and a year later arrived their oldest child, Ken. In 1950 the family business moved to Idaho settling in Twin Falls, drilling wells on the north and south side of the river. The business expanded in 1954 into farming, and the family moved to Murtaugh. Tom had already joined the family and was followed by three other siblings, Steve, Janet and Doug. The Murtaugh farm was sold in 1963, but the business now had farms in Jerome, Mountain , and Hazelton. When given her choice about which of the three farms to move to, Shirley opted instead for Twin Falls and told Bob he could commute, which he did thereafter. For the next twenty years she cooked two suppers a night, one for the kids and one for Bob when he arrived home late; she drove trucks in the potato harvest, she kept the kids in clean clothes, attended school plays, concerts, games and hundreds of PTA meetings (and the occasional visit to Mr. Bauns office at the high school). Despite having five active children, Shirley was also active in the community. She was a founding member of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Kimberly which she attended faithfully for many years until limited by mobility issues, and was active in its LWML. She was a Boy Scout Troop Leader for all four sons and a Girl Scout Troop Leader for Janet. She was active in the Twin Falls Music Club and served as its president. She enjoyed her Birthday Club and the Murtaugh Club until only months before her passing. She danced, played pinochle, taught her kids and grandkids how to make baked steak, pasties, jam, put away frozen corn, grow roses by the dozen and cook potatoes in more ways than you ever imagined. Each Christmas she supervised the decoration of hundreds of sugar cookies with her beloved grandchildren. The most important lesson Shirley gave her children and their families was the meaning of love and devotion. She traveled every day from Twin to the Gooding for four years and then Bridgeview for another five years to spend hours with Bob as he slipped away with Alzheimers. She never complained about the drive or the time and always brought to each nursing home a smile and a caring word. Shirley was preceded in death by her husband, Bob, her parents and five of her siblings, most recently her sister Frieda Roberts of Buhl. She is survived by her sister Donna Staats of Pine Top, Arizona; her five children Ken (Janis) High and Tom (Patty) High of Twin Falls, Steve (Lisa) High of Sarasota, Florida, Janet (Chris) McIntosh of Moscow, Idaho, and Doug (Kim) High of Colorado Springs, Colorado; eleven grandchildren, Sara High, Colene (Stephen) Safar-fashandi, Jake Lee-High, Lindsay (Geoff) Ewan, Scott (Amber) High, Emma High, Brandon (Mandie) McIntosh, Nic Lee-High, Hilary High, Allie McIntosh, and Anna High; one great- grandchild, Hailee High; and numerous nieces and nephews. The family would like to express their great appreciation for the care and love given Shirley by the staff at Cenoma House for the years she was there, and to the staff of the Bridgeview Medical Unit for their outstanding care and comfort given her these past five months. In lieu of flowers the family would suggest memorial contributions to the Redeemer Lutheran Church LWML or the Twin Falls School District Foundation. services will be at the Redeemer Lutheran Church at Irene & Washington Street, Kimberly, at 11:00 am , 30, 2014 with interment at Sunset Memorial Park immediately thereafter. Friends may call at the church an hour before the services. Services are under the direction of Reynolds Chapel, Twin Falls.
