Shirley A. Quandt

Shirley A. Quandt, 87, of Mayville passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, March 3, 2022, at Summit Aurora Hospital in Oconomowoc, following a fall.
Shirley Anne Schultz was born on September 3, 1934, in Mayville, daughter of Erwin and Edna Metke Schultz. She grew up on Henninger Street and was a lifelong member of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, where she was baptized, confirmed, and married.
Shirley was a 1952 graduate of Mayville High School.
Shirley was united in marriage to Edgar ‘Red’ Walter Quandt on September 17, 1955, and their 49-year happily-ever-after centered around Mayville.
Shirley enjoyed being a homemaker. She was a 50-year Dodge County elections worker and in her young adult years also worked as a secretary (administrative assistant) for the West Bend Company, Maysteel, and Schinderle Insurance.
In her spare time, Shirley enjoyed collecting Hummel figurines and cheering on the Packers. Her service included Senior Luther League, Aid Association for Lutherans, singing with the Church choir, and quick response to many committees. She liked to travel with Edgar, created perfect needlepoint, beautiful cut-out Christmas cookies, and could wrap a gift as if prepared for a photo shoot. Her phenomenal recall of detail is fondly recounted by her grandchildren, of whom she was exceptionally proud; “Before there was Google, there was Grammy”.
Survivors include her son, Greg, and wife, Teresa, of Peachtree City, GA; her grandchildren, Matthew Quandt, and wife, Rebecca, of Arlington, VA, Lindsay Quandt Gossner and husband, Joel, of Atlanta, GA, and Joshua Quandt and wife, Jada, of Atlanta, GA; sister-in-law, Violet Schultz of West Bend; her first great-grandchild, James Edgar Quandt of Arlington, VA, was happily anticipated; her niece, Christine Bauer, and husband, Joe, of Peoria, AZ; her nephew, David Quandt, and wife, Christine, of Lomira; extended friends and family also affectionately recall her kind-hearted, thoughtful, and determined soul.
Shirley was preceded in death by her husband, Edgar, and brothers, Gordon and Willis ‘Dick’ Schultz.
A memorial service for Shirley will take place on Saturday, May 21, at 12 p.m. at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Mayville with the Rev. Kenneth Schaub officiating. Visitation will be held from 11 a.m. until the time of the service at noon at the church. A luncheon will follow the service at The Pub in Mayville.
