Katherine Jane Shuping Corriher of China Grove, passed away on Saturday, November 6, 2021 at Glenn A.
 Kiser Hospice House after a period of declining health. Jane was born on April 18, 1942 to the late Arthur
 and Mary Young Shuping and was raised and loved by Margaret Ray Shuping. A 1960 graduate of Boyden
 High School, she attended Rowan Memorial Hospital Nursing School, graduating in 1963. She married
 Harry Pressley Corriher, II on December 19, 1965. They were married for nearly 50 years until his death in
 2015. She was a loyal wife, a wonderful mom and devoted grandma. Her nursing career included time in
 pediatrics, public health, nursing home, home health, and the VA Medical Center, where she retired in 2004.
 She was a caring person who lovingly attended to her patients. She instilled in her children and
 grandchildren a love and appreciation for all people and animals, especially those up in years. Harry knew
 that any pet that showed up at their place (and there were many!) would soon be part of the family! Jane
 was an exceptional cook specializing in homemade yeast rolls, butter mints, homemade spaghetti sauce,
 chocolate chip cookies and our kids' favorite, “tiny ball cookies”. While her children were young, she was
 active in the PTA, the Boy Scouts, little league coaching, and church youth activities. She tried and
 mastered all crafts, including chair caning, quilting, ceramic doll making, tole painting, candlewicking, leather
 crafts, and basketry. Athletic and competitive, Jane played church basketball and softball forever and loved
 to ride her bike. She enjoyed watching sports, whether it was a grandchild or on television. An avid Carolina
 Tar Heel and Braves fan, she would have been thrilled with the recent World Series Win by the Braves!
 What a huge hole Jane leaves in the lives of those who loved her! Jane is survived by her son, Chris
 Corriher and wife, Spring, and daughters, Ellen Benfield of Shelby, her husband, Brian, and Emily Bancroft,
 her husband, Bryan. Jane had seven grandchildren with whom she shared mutual adoration: Griffin, Keeley,
 and Meredith Benfield, Ethan, Savanna, Luke, and Holden Bancroft, two step grandchildren: Brianne
 Watson and Kacie Damme and four step great grandchildren: Ransom, Avery, Finley, and Hardison
 Damme. Jane's surviving siblings are: Mary Picking, Bob Shuping (Jean), Romas Shuping (Sarah), Leda
 Belk, Dick Shuping (Jean), and Tom Shuping (Pat), Susan Linn (Bill). Jane is also survived by brother-in-law
 John Corriher, sister-in-law Jan Corriher Kelly and many cousins, nieces, and nephews. In addition to her
 parents, she is also preceded in death by her brothers, A.J Shuping, Jack Shuping, and Bill Shuping. Her
 family would like to thank her wonderful caregivers who assisted the family in keeping Jane at her home for
 years: Nancy, Ann Marie, Ashley, Krystle, Cordi, Eve, Elizabeth, and Tonya. Service: Visitation will be held
