A smile crossed my face each time I walked to the parking lot and saw Shirley's car with its personalized plate parked east of C Y. She was such a friendly, helpful person at the C Y ticket office. So sorry for your loss.

TO AL AND FAMILY, HOW MANY LIVES AL AND SHIRLEY INFLUENCED IN SUCH A POSITIVE WAY OVER THE YRS. BOTH OF MY BOYS HAD AL AS THEIR BASEBALL COACH, AND THAT IS THE WAY WE MET BOTH OF THEM NEARLY THIRTY YRS AGO. HOW COULD YOU NOT ADORE SUCH A GENTLE LOVING LADY. SHE WILL BE MISSED BY ALL YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR MANY FRIENDS, BUT WE ALL HAVE SUCH WONDERFUL MEMORIES OF HER. THANK YOU FOR SHARING HER W/US.

Even though we dont talk as much as we should with each other, I've always held you and your family in the highest regard.You have been an inspiration to me ever since the first day I met you.I consider you family. Between you,Doc and Vernon , I felt like I could achieve anything In life I wanted. I always knew I had 3 extra dad's! How lucky can a man get. I've been blessed by your family's friendship. God bless you and your family, you will be in our prayers as you go through this difficult time. I will come see you as soon as I can. respectfully, Randy.
