Shirley A (Barker) Hannum

Shirley A. Hannum, 81, of Zanesville, went to be with the Lord on Monday August 12, 2019 surrounded by her family. She was born on November 18, 1937 in Zanesville, a daughter of the late Cleo and Mae (Cornell) Barker. She was a devoted wife, mother and committed Christian. She gave her life for the cause of others, always putting others before herself. Mom desired to meet Jesus in paradise and she looked forward to seeing his face, to eat the fruit of the tree by the still waters, and to hold and rock the sweet babies in her arms. Mom will be deeply missed by her family and those who loved her.

She is survived by her  three children Shan (Renee) Hannum, Terry (Malinda) Hannum, and Clay (Karen) Hannum. 26 grandchildren and great-grandchildren. One sister Linda (Barker) McLaughlin.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Larry Hannum, three brothers Carl, William and Marcell Barker, and one sister Emma Jean (Barker) Meredith.
