On December 15, 1950, Shirley Wilcox got married to a World War II veteran named Russell Dermond. The two were both New Jersey natives, who relocated to Georgia in the 1980s so that Russell could manage a chain of Hardee restaurants in the Atlanta metropolitan area. He was a hard worker and a successful businessman. Shirley was a homemaker and raised their four children: a daughter, Leslie and three sons, Mark, Keith, and Bradley. Over the many years they had together, Russell and Shirley also helped care for nine grandchildren. They were a picture perfect family.
