    Aunt Shirley was always friendly and kind when we would pick up the boys at Marcia’s house. She was especially close to Adam, who always talked about Aunt Shirley in a loving manner. She will be missed.

    Bev and Denise, I’m so sorry to hear about your Mom! I just loved her, and every-time I saw her she gave me a hug. She was such a wonderful woman and now her and Mom are talking with each other again. Mom thought a lot of Shirley.
