In Memory Of

Shirley D. Johnson age 74 of White Sulpher Springs

August 5, 1939 – January 6, 2014

Shirley Darlene Wicks Johnson passed away January 6, 2014 in White Sulphur Springs, Montana after her long battle with cancer.  She was born on August 5, 1939 to Marshall and Edith Wicks at Clearwater, Idaho.

Shirley grew up on a ranch in the small farming community in Pleasant Valley, Idaho.   She was the first daughter of Marshall and Edith’s.  She went to school at Pleasant Valley and Stites.  She was married to Loren Agee on September 29, 1956 in Oceanside, California.  Shirley and Loren had four sons.  They were later divorced.  Shirley married Ramon “Bud” Johnson August 11, 1990 in White Sulphur Springs where they lived until her death.

 Shirley is survived by her husband, Bud, who cared for her so lovingly during her illness; her sons, Steven Loren (Nemia) of Jacksonville, Florida, Robert Eldon (Mona) of Kamiah, Idaho, Bradley Scott (Connie) of Lewiston, Idaho, and Brett James of Spokane, Washington; brothers, Gale Wicks (Sharron), Rex Wicks (Paloma) of Kamiah, Idaho, Dwight Wicks (Leann) of Kooskia, Idaho; sisters, Donna Booth (Bill) of Orofino and Norma Olson of McCall, Idaho; sister-in-law, Gwen Hutchins Wicks of Lewiston. Shirley had 11grandchildren, 13 great-grand children and18 nieces and nephews. 

 Shirley is preceded in death by her mother and father; brother, John Wicks and nephew, Dustin Wicks.

Shirley owned and operated the Lane Bar in White Sulphur Springs for many years.  Shirley loved to garden and her incredibly beautiful house plants reflected her green thumb.  She had a great sense of humor and very clever mind.  She was an avid reader and did the crossword puzzle daily.  She and Bud lived on Newlan Lake Reservoir and there they spent many hours fishing, both summer and winter.  She especially liked ice fishing from their ice hut and spending time with Bud.  She looked forward to watching bull-riding on T.V.   Her kids claimed their calls were not received during that time.  She enjoyed watching and feeding the wildlife and birds in her yard.   The other love of her life, besides Bud and her boys, was her sassy little pet cockatiel, Bucky.   

 Shirley will be forever missed and always in our hearts. 

A Celebration of Life will be held in White Sulphur Springs at the Senior Citizens Center on (Monday) January 13th from 1 :30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m..  There will also be a memorial service at the Kamiah Community Presbyterian Church 620 7th St. at 11 p.m. on Saturday, January 18 in Kamiah, Idaho .  A potluck dinner will immediately follow the memorial service at the church. Memorial contributions may be made to Mt. View Hospital, 16 W Main St, White Sulphur Springs, Mt., 59645.

    Shirley will be missed by all who knew her. She was a great friend and I am sad for her passing but glad that she is now in a far better place. My condolences to all the Wicks family and Bud also.

    Jean and I will greatly miss our friend Shirley and all the great times we had in the trailer park with her and Bud. I will miss walking with her to see the flowers and checking out the garden, or just sitting out on the deck visiting and watching the birds go in and out of the feeders and birdhouses. Our deepest sympathy to our friend Bud, as well as Shirley’s family. We never met most of you, but Shirley talked of you often.
