Pastor Glenn Hudson will conduct the funeral at Country Bible Church, and offer Scripture and words of comfort. Pallbearers: Rick Isaacs, John Dutcher, Mike Cimino, John Cimino, Dan Jones, Ronnie Pyland. Honorary Pallbearers: Logan Pruit, Kody Allen, and Jonathan Walter.

Two songs that meant a lot to both Shirley and her husband Bob are "When God Made You He was Thinking of Me" and "She Thinks She Needs Me". Both Bob and Shirley had experienced deep losses, and were blessed by finding each other. After they were married, they heard these songs on the radio and the songs spoke to them.

"When God Made You" (chorus)

He must have heard every prayer I've been praying

Yes He knew everything I would need

When God made you

When dreams come true

When God made you

He must have been thinking about me

----written by Michael David O'brien, Eddie Carswell

She Thinks She Needs Me

She thinks I walk on water

She thinks I hung the moon

She tells me every morning

"They just don't make men like you"

She thinks I've got it together

She swears I'm as tough as nails

But I don't have the heart to tell her

That she don't know me that well

She don't know how much I need her

She don't know I'd fall apart

Without her kiss, without her touch

Without her faithful, loving arms

She don't know that it's all about her

She don't know I can't live without her

She's my world, she's my everything

And she thinks she needs me

Sometimes she cries on my shoulder

When she's lying next to me

But she don't know that when I hold her

That she's really holding me, holding me

She don't know how much I need her

She don't know I'd fall apart

Without her…
