Dad,Barb & Sue
I'm sorry for hearing that Mom past away. My thoughts & prayers are with you at this time.

I just want everyone to know that I was one of Shirley's & Al's foster childern that they took care of. I'm sure going to miss her. We had alot of fun & went on camping trips.

I'm sure going to miss My Loving & Caring Foster Mother. She meant everything to me. Mom, I'm sure going to miss calling you & talking to you on the phone. I was the only foster child that kept in touch with her & dad

Shirley was one fun, loving and crazylady. We sure had a great time camping next to her loving spouse and Shirley. She got me started beading - even gave me her beads. Many nights we would be up after 12 a.m. "beading". Our sympathy to each of you.

Al and Family,
My deepest sympathy to you in the loss of Shirley. She was such a kind and caring person. She was always so nice to my mother Lillian Smith when she was alive.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

My deepest sympathy to Al and family. Shirley was a dear friend to our family and especially to Martha. We really appreciate all she did for Martha. It put a spark into her life, as she did for many others. My prayers are with you.

Al, & Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. She was such a lifting,gifted,devoted, heart warming,loving personality and she will be greatly missed. I am sorry that I could not visit due my restrictions at CCNF while she was still with us. God Bless Sara & Gary

Dear Al,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this sad time.

Our deepest sympathy go out to Al and his family. Shirley was an inspiration to all of us. We will always remember her dining room harmonica playing and her daily visits room to room with all of her friends who were uplifted with her faith and cheerfulness..We will miss Shirley but have the peace and knowlege that she is now with her Lord.
