To Shirley’s family. Shirley is a first cousin to Ken. We haven’t seen her for years. She was always so friendly and fun loving. We offer our sympathy to her family and hope you always remember the good times. God bless you all.
James Buehler
To all the family of my cousin Shirley.
Being one of the youngest cousins of Shirley (although I am in my 70’s) I have a lot of fond memories of family reunions and at least one at Aunt Hilda and Uncle Oren’s cottage at Sand Beach. I remember always looking up to and admiring my older cousins. And in later years I remember Shirley as being the calm to Joe’s sometimes “crazy antics”. Our condolences and peace and blessings to all of Shirley’s family.
