To the Family of Shirley Babb,



I was saddened to hear of Shirley's death. I know she had been battling cancer for many years. It was a joy and pleasure to work with her both as a fellow teacher and then as the Director of PIEE. She was such a good teacher and an even better person.



Please accept my sincere sympathies on your loss. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
