Shirley was a loving and gracious lady who dedicated her life to her three children, two grandchildren and her nursing career.I will miss her wise counsel and friendship which goes back to the 1960s. Special love and sincere sympathy to Paul, Anne and Allan and their families. Your loss of your Mother will leave an unimaginable hole in your lives. You were privileged to have had Shirley as your Mum and she can be very proud of the children she has raised. My heart goes out to all. I will join with you in the live-stream of Sunday's celebration of Shirley's life. Much love from Lynette and family. xxxx

Shirley meant the world to me and my family. She embraced our American family with a loving heart. I loved her from the moment I met her. When my sister married Paul she let me know she was my mother-in-law too and I felt so lucky. Shirl, you have always been an inspiration to me. You are free from pain now but we aren’t. Love to all my Garnetts.
