Former Livermore Mayor Dr. John Shirley died on Dec. 22 at the age of 97 with his family by his side. Dr. Shirley is highly revered for his decades of service to his community and his country and will be greatly missed.
Dr. Shirley was a distinguished WWII veteran who was awarded a Sil-ver Star, two Bronze Stars, and a Purple Heart as well as the French Legion of Honor by French President Jacques Chirac. He opened Liv-ermore’s first veterinary hospital, authored two books, and was an avid traveler. He is a former Livermore council member and mayor, serving the City Council from 1958 to 1966. In July 2019, Dr. Shirley was honored at a dedication ceremony for the new Dr. John Shirley City Council Chamber.
There will be a celebration of life ceremony for John and Helen at the Barbara Mertes Center for the Performing Arts main stage on the campus of Las Positas College in Livermore CA on June 5th at 1:30 pm, doors open at 1:00pm.
