Shirley was a mentor to me at San Jose Symphony. She was generous of heart and soul. I remember her giving a birthday gift to every employee at the Symphony making each feel so special.

i have known Shirley since we were students at Notre Dame High School, San Jose. She graduated in the Class of 1950. She attended San Jose State University and was an active member of Alpha Omicron Pi National Sorority.
A few years ago, Shirley was named a "Notre Dam High School 'Woman of Impact" honoring her for her efforts in making San Jose an outstanding City.

May She Rest in Eternal Peace!
