I will miss you Aunt Shirley. Our families in Texas were sad to just hear of the passing of a wonderful person. If you see our mom in Heaven say hi to her, to Kit. I know Skip will be there too.

I am sorry I am not able to attend. I have made a donation in Shirleys Memory to the Alzheimers Association. Shirley was a special cousin to me and will be missed.
