I knew Shirley as a warm and wonderful friend from my days in Williamsburg. I was able to visit her in Euclid and enjoy her beautiful artwork. She will be so missed, but is now a bright star in the heavens.

Shirley and I worked together at the bank for 20 years. Shirley was a very special person to all. I hope all the great memories of Shirley will ease your loss.

Shirley and I were best friends all through high school. I was her Maid of Honor when she married Tommy Milner. Even though we only were to get together one time after she moved, I will always miss her and have many special memories of her.
