Bill Shirley

Elden Bowen was looking to spend his golden years with a good woman. Sweet, petite Shirley Cassara seemed to fit the bill. But after two years of marriage, Elden came face to face with the real Shirley - a woman who wanted much more than his heart.

The Partridge Family: Season 3: Episode 21 -- All havoc breaks loose when Shirley bays a cuckoo clock for $29 at Bartlet's Department Store. It seems Bartlet's has recently installed a computer to handle all their accounts. When Shirley receives her computerized bill for the clock, it reads $290 instead of $29. She goes down to the store to straighten things out with Mr. Atwater. Atwater apologizes and instructs the computer operator, Tom, to program the 1984-Z to move the decimal point and correct the bill to read $29. (Tom is quite impressed with Laurie.)
