I know Shirley through her many visits with her husband Dale, to The Cornerstone in Beverly. They were a beautiful and fun couple. Shirley grieved the loss of her beloved husband, and we now grieve the loss of Shirley from among us. May God bless them in an eternity of bliss with our Lord. And May their family who remains here, seek the Lord as well. Much love to you!
