Shirley was such a wonderful light in our lives. She was a "second mother" to me and a loving surrogate grandmother to our children. She never failed to make us laugh and feel better whenever we visited.

In more than fifty years of friendship, our families have many cherished memories. We will always remember Shirley in our thoughts and prayers.

A fine lady that helped my wife and I set up our computer. She continued to help us for some time afterwards with our bookkeeping at Power Brakes & Springs in Fort Lauderdale.
