Shirley Dradzynski, of Chapin, South Carolina, left this earthly life on February 12, 2021 following Covid-19 complications. She was 83 years young and never missed an opportunity to share what was on her mind. She enjoyed crafting and perhaps more than an occasional Hallmark movie. Shirley was born in Detroit, Michigan and lived in Florida, before moving to South Carolina. She is survived by her 2 children; Sandra (Tim) Coots of Chapin and Steven (Donna) Dradzynski of Alabama; as well as her much loved grandchildren – Chelsea Coots Firth (Dayne) of Oklahoma, Trevor of South Carolina, Ryan, Jillian, Jack and Ava of Alabama, great-grandchild Jasmine of Oklahoma, two brothers Edward (Barbara) Marcinkowski, Michael (Karen) Marcinkowski both of Michigan and a sister, Cynthia Cassale of Florida. Her husband of 46 years Edmund Dradzynski and a brother Dennis Marcinkowski preceded her in death. A celebration of life will be held at a later date due to current pandemic restrictions and the family's desire for all to stay safe and be well. Memorial contributions may be directed to the wishes of the family. You can share a memory with the family here on her Tribute Wall. Whitaker Funeral Home, Chapin, is honored to assist the family.
