Remembering her with the fondest of memories.
Sincere condolences Ron and family. Shirley was such a warm loving person and will be greatly missed. May she rest in peace.
Dear Ron and Family,
I just heard this morning that Shirl had passed away. Last year I met a woman who said to me that you should not try to take away a person’s grief but rather help them carry it. That’s what family and friends do for each other.
I sit here this morning and smile, thinking of some of the trips back and forth to Bellevue and all the shenanigans and laughs we all had during those days.
I know how much Shirl will be missed.
Please accept my condolences old friend.
