I will always remember Shirley, as a lady who made everyone feel welcome, and she always knew just what to say to make you feel comfortable. I can still hear her laugh,, and will never forget her warmth and her beautiful smile. I believe a Mothers love is forever,,, in the lessons she taught you, the patience she showed you, and her love for you,
that she gave so freely. I can’t even imagine what the reunion was like, when Shirley saw Jerry and Brenda again. I just know her heart would be bursting with love when she saw them and that beautiful smile will be seen by them once again.. Don and I are so sorry for your profound loss,, you are in are thoughts, during this incredibly difficult time.
