Thanks for always being such an awesome neighborhood Mom. You always welcomed me in your home and feed most times at your house. Thanks for especially keeping me and Rhonda in line. Glad you are no longer in pain. Tell my Mom and Brother Curtis I said hi and I love them. Your smile will also be greatly missed ❤️
How well I remember Shirley. She was so sweet and just a beautiful person. I remember the night she and Bobby got engaged as I was spending the night with Janet. She was just a sweet person and she and Leola were like my big sisters. Love the Walker family.

I will always have fond memories of you. I always smile thinking about our dog fighting with your goose. Rest in peace Shirley.
Shirley, thanks for the memories. You were my dear friend & you were the hardest working woman that ever worked for me. I will always treasure our time at Buddy Gregg's & all of those trips to Mom & Dad's in KY. Kellee & I always have said that Joe & Laverne loved you more than they did us. You were an intricate part of the Gee Family. I will see you again my precious friend. Love you so much.
You were one of the Strongest Ladies I've ever known. I will cherish every moment that I have spent with you. You were such a blessing for my family and I. A promise is a promise and I will keep everyone that you made me promise you! Until we see each other again❣️
Mama,
Words cannot express how much it meant for Timothy and I to have had the opportunity to have you in our home and in our lives. It was days and memories that we will cherish forever and I thank God for them. We became closer and shared moments and memories and most of all laughter that will sustain us in this time of grief. It was truly an honor to care for you as you had once cared for me. We love you more than you will ever know. Till we meet again in glory. Tell Tara we love her 💖
To Ms Shirley's children and siblings Earl and Janet and family. Met her threw our auctions couldn't help but care about her and her brother and sister. She will be missed love you Ms Shirley.
