Dear Phil, My deepest condolences on the passing of Shirley. I have fond memories of having dinners and lunches with you and Shirley. She had a wonderful spirit and little tolerance for sloth. Even though it has been years since I've seen you both, she definitely made a lasting impression on me. I know she will be missed. Jerry Reynolds
