Dear Gene and Family,
It is with heavy hearts that Patti, Mom and I learned of Shirley's death. Our thoughts and prayers remain with you and your family during this time and always. We fondly remember Shirley's wit, love and all-round kind spirit as we got to know her on our trip together to Montana. We think of her and you often but especially when we are traveling and fishing. We send our love and expressions of sympathy to you and all of your family. --- John.

Our deepest sympathy to all of the family. In our growing years our parents would visit each other and all of us cousins would have great times. Such great memories. What few times we were able to reunite were special moments. Cousin Shirley was a loving and caring soul. We pray God will ease the pain and hurt that the family is going through at this time. You never let go for loving someone. I feel cousin Shirley did God's will in raising a beautiful family, and touching the lives of others. Thanking God for beautiful memories,

To all the Hoover Family,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you. I worked with Shirley at Conewago, but I first met her when my daughter and her grandaughter, Ester, became friends in Kindergarten. She loved all the children she worked with and always had a smile and encouragement to give to the children. What I will always remember about her is the love of Jesus in her heart that would shine brightly everyday.
Love and Prayers

God's comfort to all the Hoover family.
Eugene...I have special memories of you & Shirley that go back to our teenage years. Shirley was a special person, always with a smile and a helping hand to everyone she met. She was beautiful inside and out. Our families shared alot of good memories throughout the years.
Maria, Susie and Sharon...My heart is breaking for your loss. Draw on your memories to help you when you think you can't take another step, & always remember you have Jesus to lean on.
To the rest of her precious family, We will keep you all in our prayers. My family sends their heartfelt sympathies.

Dear Hoover Family,
I had the pleasure of working with Shirley for a short time when I was a teachers aide back in the 80's. She was a very happy, pleasant person whose light shone brightly. She will always be remembered in my heart. May God grant your family the peace and love that comes in knowing our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

To the Hoover Family,
You may not know me but I was very blessed to have worked with Shirley at Conewago. Although she was willing to do anything that was asked of her, I believe her passion was working with the students who needed the most help. She had so much patience and a true love for the children she worked with. She was proud of you, her family, and would often show it in the stories she would share about you.
You are in my prayers.

Dear Hoover Family,
I first had the pleasure of meeting Shirley when Maria was one of my second grade students. Our paths crossed once again years later when we were both working at Conewago. Shirley was a wonderful person and friend. I will miss her but I know she's in a better place. I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
