From a very young boy to a grown man, I remember coming home to my parents house to find Shirley sitting comfortably in the kitchen or in our living room. Shirley was a real part of our family even though I did not see her all that often. I believe she also sensed great peace, love, and comfort while at our house which has only been exceeded by the eternal peace and grand perspective she now beholds. Thank you Shirley for being part of my life, you will be missed but not forgotten.

Shirley will be greatly missed by all who loved her. I enjoyed our many conversations through the years, and I am grateful to have spent much time with her this past summer. Her faith was strong and I know she is now rejoicing with our Heavenly Father.

Rest in Peace my dear friend. May God's peace be present at this time of grief for your family.
The neighborhood will never be the same.
I have known Shirley since I was just 12 years old, her and my mother worked at the hospital together for many years, then many years later my husband and I bought our house. Then my mother was visiting our new home and she noticed Shirley in her driveway and said, "You live next door to Shirley Anderson". Then old friendship was rekindled once again for many more years. Shirley then became my second mother after my mother's passing.
She will definitely will be missed.
Loves and hugs to all family members.

We have appreciated Shirley's "Lifelong Witness". She loved her Lord and is now home and at peace with Him!

Chris, Robert, Michael Family & Friends. Its sad to lose someone in death. What helped me the most was prayers and faith in Gods promise at Psalm 34:18 God is close to the broken heart: he saves those who are crushed in spirit. For more comforting scriptures, please visit: http://bit.ly/1K38EFt. Gods Kingdom that Jesus taught us to pray for will bring about these wonderful promises. My prayers are with you at this difficult time. If you wish to contact me at: ikeyes@msn.com
