My Aunt Shirley was a very special person. She was someone I always loved and knew that she loved me. She knew how to laugh, tell stories and most of all she lived her life as she believed it should be lived. She was there to protect and defend me when I was a child. She loved the beautiful things in life. I will miss her and I always appreciate having her as my aunt. I know that My dad, Grandma Triplett, Bobby, Jean, Dutch, Donnie and all of the rest who have gone before her will be delighted to welcome her home.
