To the Wright family. I was sorry to read of Shirley’s death. I have fond memories of our Sunday School Days, and especially our trip to Jamaica with Ted and Shirley for two weeks and our card games together. We had some great times together. My thoughts are with you at this sad time. We had some visits at the Villa about old times together. All the best. Irv.

Bill,Don,Ron and families,

My thoughts are with you at this time of sorrow.

I have had the pleasure of getting to know Shirley over the past couple of years, of working at the villa. I will miss our little chats and the latest gossip of the young and the restless. As a former Sears associate myself, we shared many stories. I remember her saying that she had to write down the order and then phone the call center. No computers back then.
Shirley was one of my best customers at Sears.
Cherish your wonderful memories, and the next you have a soft Worthers, think of Shirley.

Condolence from George and Sue (Insley) Wilson on December 4th, 2023 8:30 AM

Ron ( and family)
So sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. But I know you don’t mourn without hope. She is now in His glorious presence; how awesome and wonderful and unfathomable it must be to us. Praying for God’s love, peace and comfort to be with you all as you gather and remember the beautiful memories with your mom. I know my mother has shared with me the sweet, precious time she’s shared with her at the Villa. She will miss that but cherish the memories
Hold each other close, let the healing presence of Jesus be in your midst and may the Love of the Father, bring you through this difficult journey.
Sending much love and prayers,
Nancy Hutchison and Monique Vanbruwaene
