Aunt Shirley,
I hope you know just how special you were to me. You have always been there for me. You taught me so much over the years. I will cherish all the times we had spent together whether it be teaching me to crochet (which I thought you were going to pull your hair out trying, but you stuck with it), going shopping, going out to eat, doing crafts, cooking, playing games or doing jigsaw puzzles, or just hanging out and having our special talks or whatever it may have been. But mostly the many laughs we shared. You always made me laugh. I will miss that laugh!
Aunt Shirley, I love you from the bottom of my heart. I am going to miss you so much.
Love Always,
Sharon
