I had a dream last night of Shirley. It was a good dream and even though we haven't seen or talked to her in several years, I still thought of her often. She was so dear to our hearts while living in Spring. She was especially special to our daughter, Elizabeth, as she was growing up. I was so sorry to see that she had passed, but I know she is in the presence of her beloved Jesus. Our sincere sympathies to all of her family. We loved her so.
