We learned to know Shirley at the exercise class at the Blair Hospital. She was a woman of God, and fun to visit with. Voting was important to her, even though she had mobility issues, so we picked up an absentee ballot for her. She really enjoyed Western music, and brought to class a CD of her husband singing Western songs.
