    Paul and Julia, I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Shirley. She was a special person. Always upbeat and kind. She was also talented. I have a painting she did of mountains for my Mom around 70 years ago. I enjoyed visiting her when she was still living in Racine. Once she moved to Virginia, I kept in touch with frequent phone calls, last talking to her on January 21st.

    I will miss her……Gail ❤️

      Gail, Thank you.

      Shirley spoke of you often, and your calls meant a lot to her. I know she missed seeing you, Racine, and just being in Wisconsin, but we tried to make her as content as we could here in Virginia. The funeral home provides a link to watch the funeral services via your computer, if you cannot make the services in person. We know how far away WI is. Please share this with her family and any friends you might know up there in Wisconsin. We will be able to provide the link in a few days.

  2. Paul and Julia,
    We were sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. It is never easy to lose a mom/grandmother, but is comforting to know she is in the presence of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.
    We will make a donation to the charity chosen.
    Randy and Sharon Clayton
