IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Shirley Ann
Robertson
September 18, 1936 – March 2, 2026
Funeral Service
Hingham Congregational Church
Starts at 11:00 am (Eastern time)
Shirley (Walker) Robertson, of Hingham and formerly of Hull, passed away peacefully on March 2, 2026. She was 89.
She met her beloved husband, Thomas Robertson, after his service in the U.S. Marine Corps. They first met at Nantasket Beach, and fate continued to bring them together.
Married for 43 years, they raised 3 daughters on Green Hill in Hull, where they enjoyed their special beach, boating, and lobstering, and where her home was open to all neighborhood friends.
She was the beloved mother of Lynne; Donna and her husband, Jeff; and Julie and her husband, Eric; loving grandmother to Steve, Jake, Mike, and Grace; and great-grandmother to Charlie. Shirley was predeceased by her parents, Molly and John Walker, and her sisters, Lorraine and Barbara. She is lovingly remembered by many nieces, nephews, step-grandchildren, and dear friends.
After graduating from Weymouth High School, she attended the Chandler School for Women and went to work at the American Airlines corporate office.
Shirley dedicated more than 20 years to the Hull Public Schools as assistant to the principal at Hull High School.
Shirley found her greatest joy in family and friends. She loved beach days with her children and grandchildren and treasured her 15 years in Siesta Key, FL. Her lifelong friends, affectionately known as “Club,” were an extended family who gathered twice monthly for 80 years. She enjoyed playing bridge with her friends, gardening, and hosting family clambakes.
Shirley’s warmth, kindness, and radiant smile touched all who knew her, and she felt fortunate for her wonderful life.
A funeral service will be held at 11 AM on Saturday, March 14, 2026, at Hingham Congregational Church, 378 Main Street.
