Had the pleasure of meeting Shirley a few times when she visited Texas. She always had the biggest smile on her face, enjoyed being near her family so much. Her children had a special celebration for her 80th Birthday, that I had the privilege of attending, and I know it meant the world to her. Prayers to all the family....

Keeping the Egr family in our thoughts and prayers. Shirley was a "one in a million" lady who I fondly remember from her days as the always cheerful and smiling office secretary at Schuyler Central High. Heaven gained a beautiful angel.

What a shock to hear of Shirley's passing. We are remembering her family in her thoughts and prayers. She lived life the way it should be - caring and sharing. She will be missed - especially the class of Schuyler High School 1954.
