While I did not know Shirley, I do know Patricia Baetzel through my cousin Sharon (Tom) Gardner. I am sorry for the loss of your loved one.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
