Shurron Dawn Fry, age 69, passed away at Rose Arbor Place on February 8, 2026, surrounded by loved ones. She was born in Kalamazoo, MI, on March 18, 1956, the daughter of the late Phillip and Juanita (Spring) Brown. Shurron was kind, loving, gentle and genuine. She lived her life to the fullest, even in the face of her cancer diagnosis. Her greatest joy came from being a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She did her best to always be involved and rarely missed a special moment. Shurron worked hard as an administrative assistant at Kalamazoo College for thirty-seven years. When not working she enjoyed traveling and took a memorable trip along Route 66 Highway. She also enjoyed traveling to Florida to escape the cold winter weeks. She found peace in nature and loved being outdoors. She enjoyed rock hounding, was fond of turtles, dragonflies and daisies. Though quiet and reserved she always enjoyed a good conversation with friends and took time to meet new people along life’s journey. Shurron’s smile, laughter and love will be missed by all who knew her. In 2002 she married Mike Fry, her loving husband who was at her side. She is also survived by her children, Greg (Julie) Hite, Dawn Blevins; grandchildren, McKayla Hite, Alendra Hite, Kelsey Schultz, Sophia Schultz, Bryona Blevins; great-grandchildren, Izzy Hite and Georgia Hite. She was also preceded in passing by two siblings, Phillip Brown and Phillys McKeon.
