I'm so sorry for the loss of Shirley, she was my Dad's cousin, (Bob Kelley), my Dad passed in 2009. I will alway's remember Shirley and her husband Paul, they were very fun, funny people, and when I was little I remember very much the fun times we had with them. Shirley is now with my Mom "Judy Kelley" and my Dad!! God Bless to the Daniels family. Love Cheryl Kleving

My sincere sympathy goes out to Shirley's family. I worked with her many years ago at CVPS. She was a hard worker with quite a sense of humor (although many never saw that side of her). I'm glad I had the opportunity to know and work with her.
