I could write a book about my 59-year friendship with Shirl. We started out as friends and ended up as sisters. We laughed together, cried together and had lots of fun together. I will really, really miss her. But it was time or her to join Gordon and that makes me smile. We love all of you.

Shirley Garrey was the most encouraging, cheerful, and kindest people that I've known. Heaven is a better place now that she is among the saints who reside there. We will miss her, but we know her Redeemer lives!
