Leeann, Kim, Michael, and Tommy,
I am so glad that I got to know Shirley. She was a very sweet, and caring lady and I know that she loved you all dearly. Not only do I have memories of her during my high school days, but also have when she worked at Reeds. She was always smiling and had a wonderful personality. I know that you will miss her terribly, but know that she loved each of you dearly and she will be missed by all who knew her. You will be in my thoughts and prayers for many days to come. Love to each of you.

You guys have got to remember Shirl at LeeAnn's wedding. I thought she was beautiful and glowing. What a wonderful day filled with memories you can hold on to. I am so blessed to have become a friend of your family and to have know her. That was one of the best parts of becoming a realtor. You will always be in my prayers.

To Tommy and the girls, I am Bettie Moran's daughter and Ruth Moran's sister-in-law. I have kept up with Shirley's diagnosis thru Ruth and Mother and was so hoping that Shirley's positive outlook would prevail, but God's plan was that Shirley had been sick long enough. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Rhonda Moran Bishton

Tommy & Family,
Words cannot express my sorrow. It all seems so unreal. I pray for you all to find strength and peace. While I know she is not in any pain now, and she is far happier now than we can ever imagine, the selfish side of me wishes she were still with us...All my love.
