I have so many fond memories of Shirley. She was truly an unsung hero to me. She was the kind of person that would build every body up to watch them shine while quietly in the background taking no glory but truly happy to see someone do well. I remember going on vacation with the kids and a tornado was on the ground by Luverne MN so we taped the tornado and then headed to Shirley house for shelter. Much to my dismay I had a swear word in the video as I was so terrified from watching the tornado on the interstate. She was gracious about that and let us hang out until the storm passed. I also remember when we moved to Brandon a couple days before Christmas she made dinner and deserts for all of us and brought it all to our house so we would have a good supper and Christmas cookies! It was all delicious. She was truly the kindest soul and sometimes I ask her to say prayers for certain things because I know she is in heaven!! May God bless and keep you in his perfect peace.
