Shirley was a shining light that spread brightness and warmth wherever she went. Her quick wit and easy laugh will never be forgotten. She was a blessing us all. My heartfelt condolences to her family. She will be missed.

Such a beautiful person and a caring, compassionate nurse and nursing educator. My sympathy to Thomas and the family and pets. I enjoyed knowing Shirley and experiencing her warmth and fun walking dogs.

Shirley was a gift of brilliant intelligence to this world in human form and loving spirit, What made her remarkable was never being afraid of being afraid and she radiated this to all who had the very good fortune of sharing her company - patients, clients, students, colleagues, family and friends. She was the wisest of women and recognized beauty when it could not seen by others.
