I adored Miss Shirley. A lovely woman who was warm, funny and sharp as a whip. I enjoyed every visit I got to share with her. Blessings be with her family, she loved them so and spoke of them often.

Chip - so sorry to hear about Shirley. I know my parents share happy memories with her and your dad. It was so nice to run into her a year or so ago just to reconnect. Will be praying for you and your daughter, as well as her husband and the Morrow family.

Shirley was such a vibrant lady with a "sparkling" personality! My husband Jim (Jimmy) was a classmate, and I met and talked with her at the Mooresville High reunions. I'm sure she was welcomed by many in heaven and she is now with our Lord. .My thoughts and prayers with your family with this loss of your loved one.
Warm Regards,
