Sharlotte Ann Qualls

Sharlotte Ann (Shirley) Qualls passed away suddenly on Saturday, September 7, 2024 in Rowlett TX.

She is rejoicing in heaven now with her dad and her son Wesley. She was a joy to be around and had

the most tender heart of anyone ever. She will be missed terribly. She was born in Quitman TX on

November 4, 1958, to James Paul Shirley and Barbara Ann (Pool) Shirley and was the second baby

born in the new hospital at the time. She grew up in Garland, TX. She graduated from South Garland

High School, class of 1977. After graduation she married Ira Don Qualls (deceased) and raised three

children, Wesley Qualls (deceased), Waylon Qualls and Amanda (Qualls) Hunter.

Sharlotte spent most of her working life as a legal clerk and receptionist in the legal field. At the time

of her death, she was employed at the Shapiro Law firm in Plano TX. She was a hard worker and

took pride in her job no matter where she worked.

Sharlotte enjoyed collecting pigs of all sorts. She was an avid cross stitcher and a clean freak. She

hated messes. She also enjoyed going to the beach and camping with family. But above all else she

loved her family, especially her grandkids! Sharlotte had a special gift for and loved taking care of the

elderly. She also LOVED babies-anyone’s and everyone’s babies. Sharlotte loved with her whole

heart and if you were loved by her, you knew that you were loved.

Sharlotte was preceded in death by her husband, Don Qualls, and her oldest son, Wesley Qualls,

both in 2008 and by her father, Paul Shirley, in 2016.

She is survived by her mother, Barbara Ann (Pool) Shirley of Mineola TX, her son, Waylon Qualls and

his wife Stephanie Matchkus and granddaughters Raven Matchkus-Qualls, Bella Matchkus-Qualls

and Piper Matchkus-Qualls of Sachse TX and her daughter Amanda (Qualls) Hunter, Jo (Rabbit)
