It was many years ago that you came into my life by way of your sister, Penny. I babysat the kids. What will always stay in my heart is your laughter. You made us all smile, thank you for the being part of our lives, Shirley

Shirley,
I've known you since high school. You've always been full of life and loving to everyone.
What a fighter you have been and yet there always was time for others.
You are finally at peace and we who have had the privilege of knowing you will always have a piece of you with us.
Much love,
Dennis and "Janie" Woodard

You have always been the most amazing encourager and I was so blessed to have you as my Aunt.. Our daughters middle name is after you because we want her to grow up and be like you.. If I can be half the mom and woman of God that you were I will be happy.. I miss you everyday and cry because you are not here but I am so happy you are no longer in pain.. Love you so much!!

You showed up at my house 6 years ago for a ladies bible study and I loved you on sight! I can't believe you have left us and I can't believe how much I already miss you! I prayed so hard for God to heal you on this earth but you are healed now! I know you are dancing in heaven full of joy and I will see you again and we will dance together just like we always said, before our King! You loved deeply and unconditionally. You will be so missed but what a legacy you have left behind!

I hope her children, good friends and family can move along past this loss of her and am glad her suffering is over.
Her smiles, both inner and outer, are timeless now.

What a shock to see your beautiful face in the paper. We were friends so long ago. I alway remember the La Mesa dances, you taught me the Jerk. That was a dance in the sixties. We had so much fun then and in our early marriages. Funny our granddaughters have similar names, we have Kiley and Cassidy. I'll always remember that twinkle in your eye and how you always made people feel special. Love you dear friend. Dance on. Donna Lamb Cetola

Shirley,
We were Crawford buddies, and even though we lost touch throughout the years, I will always remember your gorgeous smile.
Rest in peace, dear friend, until we meet again; no more suffering, only peace.
With deepest sympathy and God's Blessings!

Last week I sensed a Saint left this planet. A couple of days ago, God told me to search for you. I knew what that meant.I was so believing and praying with you for a healing HERE. I grieve with your family. I know you are at peace and have found the joy of your salvation last week. I regret that we didn't have more time here, but I knew the moment I met you , you were my sister. As you know now, Chuck arrived up there a couple of weeks before you and I find comfort that the two of you are sharing the joy of your new circumstances together! I love you Miss Shirley and I will be there in a twinkling of an eye. I look forward to your bright smile and loving conversation! God bless your family and may He give them the peace that passes all understanding!

Shirley....you came into the Jensen family at the young age of 18 and married my brother. We shared many years of great fun & laughter, raising our children together & the countless hours at "the family business". I loved your strength and your passion for life. We were truly blessed to have you and I will forever miss you on this earth. May God bless you for eternity. Love, Candy

Shirley,
You are the sweetest most loving woman I have ever met. I am so glad that my mother and you became such wonderful friends. My family (Karin & the girls) always looked forward to your visits to our home during our annual super bowl and Christmas holiday gatherings. I will always remember that during your courageous fight for life it was you who called me when you heard of my Melanoma Cancer scare to assure me that everything was going to be alright. I couldn't believe that during such a difficult time in your life you took the time to comfort me. The world will have a little less love in it without you. You will be forever missed.
Love
Pat, Karin, Lauren, Jenna and Kari
