Girls, hold on to God's unchanging hand in your time of sorrow. Your Mother was so sweet, kind, and giving of herself. She loved you all so much. Stay together and keep praying as your Mother did.

To the aTillery/Young families my heartlfilled condolence is with you-Shirley was a beautiful person both in and out. She displayed her love of gospel music soooo graciously on the piano. I enjoyed singing with her in the Voices of Triumph Choir, when she would get happy she would kick off her shoes and dance for the Lord. May you find peace in knowing that now she is truly dancing for the Lord ( dis olde world is Not her home)there is a bright crown waiting for you.
