Shirley was my mother in law and knowing her has been a life changing experience. She loved, laughed and lived like no one else. Her wonderful jokes were like little pearls that brought joy and wisdom at the same time. I will treasure each hug and memory of my times with her forever.

Shirley was like a ray of sunshine where ever she went...always upbeat, always ready with a smile. Her love of life was infectious. Condolences to her family and all the many people who loved her, from a high school classmate of that lively blond who was an unforgettable personality.

She was a unique person loved by all at Foothills. She never let anyone down and had a special gift to make you just feel good about your life. I will always remember her care of Congressman Dan Schafer in his greatest time of need. So caring of all may she rest in eternal peace.

Truly a beautiful person, inside and out. My fondest memory of her is when she was honking at me in the parking lot and her horn got stuck. We laughed many times over that.

My life was truly blessed when I first met and began working with Shirley in 1970. Our friendship was a strong bond that continued 45 years with many fond memories, tears and laughter and wonderful times together. Rest in Peace dear Friend until we meet again. My sincere condolences and love to Jeff, Peggy and Nancy.
