  15. Tim, Margie and family,
    I was saddened to see the passing of your mom. What a special woman she was! I remember her always having such a kind smile. She had a heck of a job being our beloved school nurse to 1000+ students back at TVHS. She truly had the wings of an angel. Blessed be her memory.

  16. “Simply the Best” was what I lip-synched pretending to be Tina Turner at Shirley’s TV retirement party. And she certainly was in many ways. It was always fun to run into her at community celebrations when she was out and about. Now I have requested that Tina sing this to her in person. “Better than all the rest.”

  17. As we reflect on remembering Shirley’s Irish life of kindness and caring that she shared with so many we are saddened but extend our sympathy and prayers to Shirley’s daughter and sons and their families
