A taste of Shirley's poetry: "Put my vase right next to Bern's, it feels so good at last, the years apart were oh so hard, I'm glad they're in the past".
The family would like to thank the staff at Harborview Acres in Port Charlotte for the love, compassion and care that they extended to Shirley.
Services will be private by the family. Memorial donations, in lieu of flowers, may be made to Tidewell Hospice, Inc.
