Shirley Was A Friend As Well As A Co-Worker And She She Lived Her Life According To Her Faith As Did Her Husband Vernon So Anybody Who Came In Contact With Either Shirley Or Vernon Knew That They Were Seeing The Lord Inside Their Hearts By Their Words And Their Actions. Shirley Was Very Kind To The Patients That She Transported And So Very Kind To Everyone That She Ever Came In Contact With. While I Am Terribly Saddened That We Don't Have Shirley With Us Physically Anymore I Know That She Is Now With Her Loved Ones Who Entered The Heavenly Gates Before Shirley Did To Greet Her. May Shirley's Memory Always Be For A Blessing And May We All Be As Dedicated To Our Individual Faiths As SHirley Was and As Vernon Is. Ed Olshansky Friend And Co-Worker
