Kevin and I are so sorry for your loss. We loved Shirley so much and will miss her dearly. she and Walter were the first people to welcome us to the Heritage Heights family and were always there to lend a helping hand or support our family. I will dearly miss the porch chats that Shirley and I had frequently and going to get Mexican food at Su Casa. the neighborhood will never be the same without her. We know that she is at peace and happily reunited with Walter and Norman. Prayers to her family and friends. Love, The Neales.

She was the sweetest lady! A true angel sent by God! From the first time I met her at St.Mark she was always the same. I could rest assuredly that she would be at Annual Conference. I missed her this year and that was when I was informed of her transition. Family she was a jewel that I will truly miss that warm smile and big hug. My condolences to all of you.
