My heartfelt condolences to all of you. I have wonderful memories of Shirley. My earliest one is when Bob and Shirley lived next door to our family in Lafayette where she gave my sister and I our first permanents. My first earnings were when Shirley gave me 5cents a bag to take out her garbage. Ronnie and I had a wonderful visit with her and Bob in New Hampshire years ago. God be with you all and I will remember you folks in my thoughts and prayers.
