Shirley was a very good friend and I am so glad I got to visit with her a few weeks ago. We had such a good time sharing old stories. My heart goes out to the family and the caregivers. I know all of you were so good to her and loved her so very much. She loved life and had so much determination. I know it has been a long hard road, but she is in a much better place. Keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers,.
