Hailey and family,
I was so saddened to hear about Shirley's death. She was my PA Mom. I was glad I got to see her the week before. She always called me "Kissy".

I'm so glad I had the chance to work with Shirley. She was always singing and so much fun to be around. I had a kidney stone at work and was on the floor waiting for the ambulance. Shirley made me a pillow out of bubble wrap to keep me comfortable. God has a beautiful angel up there to sing in his choir. My sympathy goes out to the family.

TO shirleys friends and family; I remember this very vibrant women who took care of me and my sister when we were little for my mother and father who had to work during the day. She taught me respect, love and compassion. She included us in her daily life, taught me how to swim and how to make homemade ice cream. Many good memories in New Smithville at her home. May you rest in peace!
