Dear Shirley's Family,
So very sorry at the passing of your Mother. I was fortunate to know her as we both worked together at The Olive Garvey Center for years.
I truly treasure my work relationship and the friendship we had. Your Mother was wonderful to work with. She had a great sense of humor. She was caring. She was kind. And she was a top notch staff member. In later years we exchanged Christmas cards. Please know I am keeping your Mother and your Family in my heart and my prayers.
