I will miss Shirley even though we met rarely. I was touched and influenced by her powerful, gentle presence. She had such a soul that was luminous and loving. I find it hard to put words on who she was to me but I know she touched my life and I loved and admired her hugely. She will be such a loss to the fcjs and her family and my heart and sympathy go out to you all.
Love,
Sarah fcj

Don's think of her as gone away; her journey's just begun. Life holds so many facets; this earth is only one! Just thinks of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears, in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days or years. Just thinks how she must be wishing that we would know today that nothing but our sadness can really pass away! Just think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched, for nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much!

My love and prayers are with you in the loss of your sister Shirley.

Love, cousin Greta
