    Sad to hear of Shirley’s death. I embrace the members of her family at this time of loss and sorrow. May you be open to God’s way of supporting, comforting you and sustaining you during your time of grief.

    My life was meaningfully blessed by the ways Shirley shared the gifts of her life during my time in Dashwood. So in sadness, there is also gratitude.

    Our sincere condolences to all of Shirleyโ€™s family. Although we knew Shirley and George since we were kids – attending Church in Dashwood and being involved with events there – I really got to enjoy Shirley by joining the ladies bridge club in the last 10 years. We had lots of laughs and good conversation each week, and I learned a lot about bridge! We know that your memories of Shirley will keep her alive in your hearts, and we send our thoughts and prayers to you.
