It was indeed most tragic; my husband and I were there the afternoon it happened along with several of our friends. I've kept Shirley in my thoughts and prayers and Shirley's family for many years.
My husband has passed away almost a year ago; and, I miss him every day. He died of natural causes.
I'm sure Shirley is a guiding Angel to each and everyone of your family. May our Savior bless you and keep you and give you all Peace.
