Still missing you my friend. That feeling is always with those who loved you and were happy being with you. Put in a good word for those of us left behind so that someday we can all be together again.

Still missing you Shirley, every time we come home, I think, we need to go visit. Then I remember. Time may dull the pain but the hole will never be filled. Prayers for the family, I know Shirley doesn't need them, she's already with our Lord.

How I miss the occasional phone call and talking to Shirley and the family, I know Jared misses his annual Birthday call. I still can't believe this beautiful woman is gone from our sight, but I know she is with God now. Hard medicine for us maybe, but it certainly how she spent her life to attain. She is happy, we are sad. We will always love and miss her deeply, as I'm sure her family will too.

To the Crockett family: we are so sorry for your loss. We didn’t know she had passed and can’t believe she is gone. We will miss talking to her, I am so thankful for everything she taught me, I sure had tons of questions. We loved her like family and are thinking about all of you too, you will be in our prayers. Wish there was a way to get a hold of one of you. We are in Mesa, AZ now.
