You were a wonderful Auntie. A pioneer, a wise woman, and so supportive of your family. A pillar in our community who loved to dance, laugh, visit, listen to your music whenever you could, and get away on a road trip whenever it presented itself. You saw so much in your lifetime and took it all in stride. You were a courageous woman, who backed down from nothing, nor anyone. You did it your way and will be dearly missed by so many. Love you Aunt Shirl...xoxoxox
