We met Shirley and Jimmy when we first moved to Fairfield in 1980. Shirley invited us into the Assumption Community, where else but the Beer Tent at September Fest. I served with her for Hot Dog/Pizza Lunches and used her talented Interior Design skills to wallpaper our new home, We enjoyed Beer and Bloodys there every New Year´s Day for 40 years when COVID interfered. Rest in Peace dear friend

Dear Jim and family, my heart is aching for you with the passing of dear Shirley. I have so many happy memories of our time together at Assumption Parish. I can still picture her infectious smile. I shall remember her when I celebrate mass tomorrow morning. Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
