Shirley was a special person, with a kind heart. She introduced our family to a delightful little dog "Ginger" who brought so much joy to our lives. Her love of animals was such a blessing to the entire Wallingford community.

To a lovely Lady I have known for many years for many years… I so enjoyed our conversations and times together as neighbors and good friends. You were so sweet to my dog Sadie and she loved you so much. We thank God that your suffering is over and you can rest peacefully in Heaven. Georgie, Andy & Sadie

To Mrs.Gianotti's family, We were so sorry to hear of her passing, She was such a kind and caring person and our Family was among the many people who have benefitted from having dogs in our homes that came from her having saved them and kept them safe at the Shelter so aptly named after her. She was truly one of a kind that we in Wallingford were fortunate to have and call our own!!!!

My heart goes out to Jeni, Paula, and Louise. Your mom was a strong, bright, and persevering woman. My dad would have called her "a tough old broad" but I know there was a softer side through our many talks. I already miss my lunch buddy and I hope you are finally at peace. God Bless you my friend.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight The journey home,towards the light To those who weep,a life will be gone But in God's love,'tis but the dawn.
....... your life is like the morning fog – it's here a little while, then it's gone. .......... James 4:14
Life is preparation for eternity. We were not made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in Heaven
We will miss you Shirly! You taught both of us so much, working with you all those years ago. ....Linda &...

Rest in peace ! You deserve it. I will always remember your fighting the Town for what you believed in. The care of your animals at the shelter . I remember your tag sales and knew you really cared for what you were doing. God rest in peace now and love you .
