I thank God for very fond memories of Mr and Mrs Cottle spending time with me and my family in their home and ours. We feel so grateful for their affection. Shirley indeed was like a mother to us. As a visitor in USA in 1991, I remember having breakfast with her, introducing me to "Eggs Benedict"! She was just so sweet talking about how wonderful the Living Lord and Savior is during that meal. You have just gone ahead of us Shirley. I will see you there!!! Love from Elvira Vida

Shirley Cottle is one of the most amazing christian women I have ever met. Her hugs were geniuine, her example honest, and her bread was mouth watering. Shirley never judged me and was always a constant reminder of the love of Jesus Christ. Heaven is rich today and I know she is dancing face to face with her Savior. My thoughts and prayers are with the Cottle family in the celebration of her life. I will always be grateful for the memories that I have of her and her wonderful family! Candy (Lebo) Briley
