Shirley had an infectious radiant smile that would light up the room. There wasn't a time that you don't remember her smiling. When you walked in the door you always heard "hey sugar". If you did anything for her she would say "thank you cher". She was known for her awesome margaritas, beautiful flower garden and was a wonderful seamstress. Shirley always put others first without any complaints.
