Billie Stiteler Obituary Billie Jean (Harmon) Stiteler of Shelby, age 84, passed away from this life to her eternal home in heaven on May 15, 2024. Billie Jean was born February 7, 1940, in a farmhouse in Shelby to the late William and Rhoda (Hall) Harmon. She was a 1958 graduate of Shelby High School, where she was a member of the band, choir, and Mel-o-ettes.

She became an Air Force wife, and they moved to Pennsylvania for a year. Billie raised her children, then went to work at Clancy's Restaurant, Fisher Big Wheel, and later retired from Autocall.
