Just read about Shirley's service. Hoping to rearrange my schedule so I can make it. My children remember Aunt Shirley's peanut brittle and how late she liked to stay up (they were worried Santa wouldn't make it one year because Aunt Shirley didn't go to bed.) Now the sisters are together. God's peace to both of them.
