Bill and I still can not believe that this has happened. The one thing we do know is that Shirlene is now with the Lord. God bless all the family at this time. Mary & Bill
Jon, you and your family have my deepest sympathy.
John, Sean, Frank & Ruth Ann… I am truly sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a 2nd Mom to me for several years and she will never be forgotten. I hope that God blesses you all and provides comfort to you during these difficult times.
Jon and Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. May God bless you and your family. Kevin Hill and Family
i am so sorry for your loss, shirlene had a special place in my heart. when we worked at semo ctc together she always took care of me and made sure i had something to eat with my restricted diet. made me (a non smoker) go on smoke breaks with her. and then later when i got to see her every year at tax time. she was truely a special lady and will always be one of my few favorite "old broads" i will miss you my friend.
Deeply sorry for your loss.
We are sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you.
I worked at SEMO CTC as well with Grandma. She was a hoot! She always cooked great and took care of the staff with her extra pans of rolls that melted in your mouth. She will be missed but not forgotten.
