Ms Akins was a sweet woman that was always willing to help and give you a hand. She was a great coworker to me at Atwood Elementary. Sending many prayers to her family. May God Bless.

Shirley was very kind and a great help to me in the classroom. She loved children especially her grandchildren. She will be greatly missed. It has sadden my heart that she is gone at such a young age of 64. Her friend and ex-co-worker at FWISD.
