I will sure miss Shirley. Loved seeing her at Opportunity Cafe. Loved visiting with her. She had such a great smile! Loved how sweet she was to my son Alec. Until he teased her too much and she then she\u2019d playfully swat him with her cane. He deserved it;)
\nWe enjoyed going to her house playing Rummicube (sp?) with her one time. She was sharp!!!!
\nAlexa told me once I will probably be like Shirley when I get older. I took that as a compliment! I will and have already missed her comments on all my FB posts most;) One thing is for sure I know that Shirley\u2019s faith has become her eyes. She most definitely made it to glory and is feeling Joy like never before! Thankful for the Hope we have in Jesus! See you soon Shirley!
\nPraying for all of the Radley family at this time! Thankful to be part of your family! Xoxo

Shirley was an amazing person. I got the privilege to work with her for many years as a trainer. She saw me through so many events in my life. She was full of wisdom and advice. I loved how much she loved being busy and being around her family. I know she will be missed and had so much love around her. Sending love and prayers for the family that Shirley loved so dearly.
