My family and I are very sad to hear of Miriam's (Shorty) passing. She was high spirited, yet warm and caring at the same time. Definitely someone who will be remembered in the community for a long time to come.

I am so sorry to read of Miriam's passing. I have shared many good laughs with her over the years. No one could deny her great sense of humor! Words can do little at a time like this, just know that I will keep you in my prayers and please find comfort in knowing you shared the good and bad with her over the years. May time heal you both!
Love,
Nancy
