Aunt Shirley was always a special friend of mine. My mother's BFF, a great pal to my dad. I can't imagine the world without her. I'm honored to be the 3rd share the initials of my mother and Kulp. We all loved her dearly. Bob joins me in sending condolences, Patsy and Billy, and the whole family. Thank you for allowing me to be part of "the family" as well!

Jamie and I send our heartfelt condolences to the Kulp family as Shirley was such a special and long standing friend of our mother (Bernice Hirsch). The Saturday lunch group will forever miss her and no one can take her place. She was smart, kind, and caring and had many friends who adored her.
The two of us hold a place in our hearts for her.
