    Pam, I spent many summers at Shirley’s home in Bloomfield Hills. Unc Paul was a Favorite of mine. Lots of laughs and great memories. Always enjoyed my cousins at their home and at the Burlington farm. My love for you as you will always have a spot in your heart for your Mother. I pray that Jesus will always hold you in his hands and comfort you. Come and visit us in FL this winter

    Pam and family,
    So sorry for your loss but Heaven has gained a saint! I absolutely loved studying the Bible with your mother in her Sunday School Class at FBT. She had so much knowledge about the Bible, men and women of faith, the Holy Land and had a knack of bringing it all to life. She was certainly talented when it came to music too. I remember being in the choir at the Bettsville church. We would go over and over s song until it passed Shirley’s approval! She strove for perfection from a bunch of rag-time amateurs. Bless her heart, she never gave up on us. Hang on to the wonderful memories. God bless you all!

    Shirley was a wonderful person. I knew best as my Avon Lady. She was also a customer at various banks that i worked at. May Jesus grant Y’All peace and comfort with her loss. He has a new angel filling out his choir.
