Dear Mary and Jimmy,
Aunt Shirley was a wonderful, loving, accomplished and thoughtful woman. She had an extraordinary life and touched the hearts of so many people. I am the beneficiary of her kindness and unfaltering character as she shared her thoughts on strength and perseverance with me. I loved Aunt Shirley very much, always have, and am so grateful for her gift of love.
I am sorry that I cannot be with you at this time in person, but I will have Aunt Shirley's memory with me and be thinking of you. Gary and Lucile Gibbs
