I knew Shirley only for a few years, she was a wonderful caring person. I've worked with her daughter, Cheryl, for 4 years now. Shirley was a thoughtful person. I will miss Shirley very much. Thank you for sharing a part of your life with me. Sandy and Karin THANK YOU for all you had done. Shirley you will always live in our hearts and prayers... Thank you

Shirley and I worked at USM. prior to my retirement in 1999. She was a wealth of knowledge and just a wonderful lady to be associated with. She knew the Glickman Family Library and managed the Librarian's Office like it was her home. She gave many loving hours to the University. Thank you Shirley for your patience when I came to work on the Portland Campus, your many anecdotes, historical information and being so nice to me.

Shirley & I worked at USM at the same time..she worked in Portland & I worked in Gorham...we chatted all the time & I missed her a lot when she retired...She was a lovely lady...my deepest sympathy to her family...

Aunt Shirley was a sweet lady, always dressed to impress and I don't ever remember seeing her without lipstick on. I will never forget when she accepted my invitation to come to my class (6th grade) for a Thanksgiving feast that we prepared and served to our "special person". She will be missed by all. Please spread your wings and look out for us from above.
Love you always
Krisi Wilson & Family
