God bless Shirley, I wished my mother Eleanor and I could have seen her one last time, but I suppose the twentysomething years we spent living at 9R Mt. Vernon street we should consider ourselves blessed. Shirley was like a mother to me and I'll never forget her. She will always have a place in our hearts.

John, Bill, Michael, Jim and Karen:
There are no words to adequate describe the woman your mother was except to say that there was none like her. She brought a certain spark to a room that always made me laugh and that is what I choose to remember now and for always. Her life was her children of whom she was so very proud may that be a comfort to each of you as you remember her. I feel blessed to have been so welcomed into your family for the many years that I shared with your mom, I thank...

Beautiful Shirl, will be deeply missed and I will always have such fond memories of her for years to come. I can still hear her voice calling out to "come in" from her chair in the livingroom.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
Love
Madonna, Bobby, Tony and Mikey. God Bless

We were so sad to hear of Shirley's passing. She was such a vibrant personality with her crafts and her great sense of humor. We still have one of her angels. She is now with them in Heaven. She will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. So sorry we could not be there.

Jim and family...........my deepest condolences at this time. It has been a lot of years since I last camped at Angle Pond, but I sure remember the wonderful times we had there and the wonderful people. Shirley was a great gal, and I always enjoyed her company.My husband, John, passed away in August. It is hard to lose your partner, and we were one month short of 45 years, but I've been keeping busy, and that eases your loss. I hope you are well, and know my thoughts are with you and your...
