St. Annes' Parish has lost a wonderful member, so dedicated and hardworking and fun to be around. Our only consolation is that she is with God and finally free from pain.

How we laughed through so many times especially when you were my maid of honor in 1956. We cried together many times too, but always were there for each other. How I will miss our lunches and our phone calls. God will be there to welcome you, my friend--just don't talk His arm off!
Love, Marilyn

Quite a few years ago, we regularly sat next to Shirley and Tom in the East stands at Mile High Stadium. They were great Broncos fans, and such fun to be with. We are saddened to learn of her passing, and we send our sympathies to her family.
