OMG...

I just can't believe it...

I always enjoyed visiting with Shirley at every IHRA race I went to. She was a pistol.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Hank.

We're thinking of you Hank, and you'll be missed, Shirley.

I always enjoyed trying to make Shirley smile, particularly when she looked like she didn't want to. It won't be the same going to the trailer.

God Bless and God Speed,

I just saw Shirley at the Buds Creek points race and got my usual hugs. My thoughts and prayers go out to Hank. I always considered both of them as family. I will miss seeing her smiling face. Terry Bell

Very sorry to hear this.

Shirley was a very nice and friendly person. Fun to talk to.

Part of the reason you always felt welcome at an IHRA race.

Condolenes to Hank.
