To Melissa and Travis Sending your families my condolences for the loss of your sweet mom and grandmother. I met Shirley when she walked into a store I was working in. We were instantly kindred and began a great friendship. She leaves a beautiful legacy of love, family, and faith, and this will always be with you. Shirley had this joy and peace, even in hard times. I will miss our talks and her stories. A very generous heart, thank-you for Shirley for everything. I'm so glad you walked into my store. With all my heart, Jeannette
