Hi Sheila, Last time I saw you two was at a CG reunion at the Skyline. My memories of your Mom were always good ones. Enjoyed her as a co-worker, supervisor and always considered her my friend. She will forever hold a very special place in my heart. My sympathies to you and your family.
Fondly,

Sheila,
Please accept my most sincere condolences on the loss of your mother. She was a good woman and a hard worker and will be missed by many people. I have no doubt she is now up in heaven looking down on us all. Shirley was one of the first people I met when I went to work for CG back in 1969 and I will never forget her. Although I know she has missed the last few gatherings, I will miss seeing her at our annual CG Reunion group. May God bless you and your family and may he help...

You loved me for me. SOMETIMES I was LEONARD, sometime I was Lynnie (just for you). "Shirl Gurl" loved hanging out with friends at "Hi Lie's" cafe after a softball game; and you would always get up to dance to Ring My Bell (among other favs) and gurl you had a contagious laugh. You are in my heart and I'll be talking with ya ...as I did last month and always in my prayers! BTW, UCONN JUST WON FINAL 4. 73 games undefeated; going for 4th championship. THIS ONE'S for you, Shirl Girl.Lol LOVE YOU...
