    Shirley was one of the best friends I ever had growing up. We were “partners in crime” and shared so many laughs together. She was like a sister in so many ways. Although we didn’t see each other often those last few years, when we did talk, it was genuine and from the heart, with always a laugh. She will forever be on my heart♥️

    My dear childhood friend, you will be sadly missed. I will always cherish the times spent in your upstairs bedroom playing dolls or the countless baseball games in Marenger’s field. You always had a kind gentle heart. Rest well my friend.❤
