Shirley Ann Hibbeler (nee Haislip), of O Fallon, MO, passed away Sunday, August 15, 2021, at the age of 84. Beloved wife of the late Oliver Hibbeler, Jr.; cherished daughter of the late Elroy Frederick and Adell A.

Dear sister of Dennis (Janet) Haislip; Shirley is also survived by a host of loving brother and sisters in law, nieces and nephews. Shirley cherished her time spent with Ollie at Lake of the Ozarks where she drove the school bus for the School of the Osage. She loved getting to know the new kids every year for 18 years. Her fondest memories were of their travels together with the collector clubs that Ollie belonged to. Their annual trips with the American Brewery Association, Just for Openers Club and the National Fishing Lures Collectors Club created so many tales to tell later. As long as Shirley was able to stop at the casinos, they found along the way they were both their happiest on those trips. Her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were her life, and she did her best to keep up with everyone. She accompanied her family on every trip possible up until the week before her death. She never met a stranger, was very well put together and loved to be with and around family. She loved talking to people and making them feel special. Her favorite saying is "When you meet me you may not like me, but you'll never forget me". Shirley was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
