Shirley was a wonderful person who was a dear friend to her neighbor Helen Johnson in Robin Hill neighborhood, Omaha Ne. As Hellen's Son-In-Law, I often met with them for coffee and talk about Shirleys love for teaching at Central High School, her kind brother and just local news and events. Once Helen passed and Shirley moved to Elgin I lost contact with her. I know she is currently amongst friends in heaven. God bless her. I will continue to include her in my daily prayers. My name is Ron Turco, Henderson Nevada.
