Donna Marlene Shipley

June 28, 2016


Donna Marlene Shipley, age 64, passed away surrounded by her family on Tuesday, June 28, 2016 at Sunrise Senior Center in Riverside, CA. Born in Indianapolis, IN and raised in Southern California, she was proud to be the fourth child of ten (Sandy Maddis, Marsha DeWees, Linda Zerbel, Rick Krebs, Daryl Krebs, Leon Krebs, Robin Randels, Mark Krebs, and Rene O’Mahoney) born to Maxine and Charles Krebs. Just shy of seventeen years old, she married Raymond John Shipley and, after having helped her parents with her younger siblings and her older siblings with their children, she waited ten years to have children of her own: James Ely Shipley, Raymond Earl Shipley, and Diane Marie Salgado. She was an extraordinarily loving mother, who raised her kids with values guided at heart by compassion. She loved nothing more than good cheer, to sing and dance, whether as a child with her sisters as they washed dishes, at holiday parties as her brothers played guitar and bongos, or rocking her grandbabies, Aurinia and Aris Shipley. While a good singer in her own right, those who had the fortune to know Donna will remember her open heart, most often expressed in the clear music of her laughter. A celebration of her life will take place on July 16, 2016 at 6:30pm at the home of her brother Daryl Krebs: 11832 Claycroft Ln, Riverside, CA 92505-3164

I have always Loved You and you will be in my heart forever! Some of our years together were not easy but we made it though. See you I Heaven.

Mistie
So many memories.. Hard to choose just one. I will always cherish the times together with you Uncle Leon and the family. You took us in and taught us so much. We spent more time with you all than our own family. I always knew when it was time to get back home from your whistle heard around the world, your love of watching boxing and participating with jabs from your recliner. Most of all I will remember the love of being a family unit. We were all in it together in the good and the bad. We will see each other again soon and I will wait for that hard pat on the back. 

Rachelle Anderson-Romero
I didn't want to see how much I took after you. An adulthood gone to waste cuz I was stubborn. Hope the last few weeks made it easier for you to let go. You will always be loved sorry it took so long for you to know it or see it. I will forever remain daddy's little girl. See you soon.  

Jonathan Anderson

All the work we did together taught me how to be the person that I am today. Will always love you dad. Get that log cabin in heaven ready for the rest of us to join you when our time has come. Love you.

We met Michael many years ago when he was working at LA Mattress in Corona, CA. That guy could sell anybody anything! He just had a way about him that drew you in! After we purchased mattresses from Michael we developed a friendship that was truly wonderful. We always helped each other and Michael would come to our house for family holiday dinners and was always so appreciative for the invitation and to be with us. In years past as Michael's eye sight worsened, we would pick him up to bring him to our house since he could no longer drive but he never let that get him down. He was a real trooper! Michael became friends with our friends and everybody loved him and oh yes, in his capacity as a relationship advisor he gave advice to one of our mutual friends whom to this day is in a happy relationship that came about from Michael's help. Our hearts are very sad and feeling the pain but we are so blessed to have known Michael and been a part of his life and he of ours. We love you and will miss you Michael forever...may you rest in peace. Nancy Sharkey Lori Pereira

Obituary of Terri Gasca Terri Gasca was born on January 22, 1965. The Lord called her home on June 8, 2016 while she was surrounded by her loving family, which included her nieces, sister and brother in law, and her dog Bobby. Terri, was diagnosed with cancer in 2005 and even though doctors informed her she only had 6 months to live, she showed strength, perseverance, and courage that was emblematic of how beautiful of a person she was. Terri’s long battle with cancer came to end after 11 years. She was an avid bug hunter, pet lover, and a true lover of life who always found the good in every situation and was always seen with a smile on her face. She loved taking Bobby for a walk, tending to her garden, and catching bugs to show off to her friends and family. Family meant the most to Terri and she always made sure to express her love to her sister Mary, her brother-in-law Jesse, and her two nieces Jeanette and Jacquelyn. Terri is predeceased by her mother, Virgina Gasca, and her brother Albert Gasca. She is survived by her sister Mary, brother Jesse, and nieces Jeanette and Jacquelyn Savell.
