Not sure what to say?

Our family lived in Corvallis during the time her family lived there. I did not know her personally, but I wanted to learn about her because of Chris, her amazing son whom I knew lived in Corvallis, and whose talent we love and follow. Thank you for having this wonderful tribute to Shirley on this website...Charlie and Judy Snider

Shirley was a dear bridge partner and friend in Claremont days. I always loved her laugh and brilliant smile. We had the same model of home and a group of us shared fun luncheons and home tours. She was so proud of her two sons.
My husband and I visited her at The Springs and shared a glass of wine. Though her memory was failing she still had her laugh and wonderful smile.
You are missed dear friend.

Miss Stewart was my typing teacher at Franklin High School in 1956. The school was a buzz that Mr. Botti and Miss Stewart were getting married. Those were really "happy days" at Franklin and your mother was one of my favorite teachers.

Shirley was certainly the brightest spot in our lives as we searched for the best home to raise our Corvallis family. Warm, kind, interested in what she could do for us-she found us the perfect neighborhood and home. Prayers with all you, her family

Shirley, I often think of all the good times we shared while we lived in Claremont. All those scrabble games, all the many things that friends and neighbors share. It was a friendship that really mattered and will always be a good memory for me. I've missed you since I moved away, and even since you moved out of The Springs. You didn't know me when we last saw each other, but we enjoyed our talk anyway. You were as gracious as always. I saw Chris when he played in Santa Fe, and we hugged and...

Dan you were fortunate to have such an amazing, selfless Mom. Her commitment and the opportunities she provided for you and Chris were exemplary. You have followed her pattern as you selflessly gave her your love and time during her declining later years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you reflect on the gift of your loving Mom. Much love to you and Cendi and your family.

Losing a loved one is never easy, but our loving God promises to give the strength and courage you'll need to endure, and to cope with the pain of your loss. He also promises to hold your hand every step of the way. (Isaiah 40:29, 41:10, 13) May loving memories also sustain your family during this difficult time. Ann Smith

As a son who's parent had also died from this dreaded disease, we wish to express our sincere condolences to the Botti Family in the passing of Shirley Botti.
