We send our sympathies to your family. We will miss her. this is being written by their daughter Becky. I took mom to the Oran graduate luncheons she use to attend. Mom and dad will not be able to attend the drive through visitation or funeral but you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Many fun memories of times with Shirley from childhood onward. Many of us grew up under her watchful eyes. What a great smile she had! Thinking of you all as you mourn her passing. May God’s peace be with you. Hugs.
