I was saddened tonight to hear of Shirley's passing. Although we've been out of touch for many years I have many fond memories of the good times we had working together at the RCA back in the sixties, and chumming around outside of work with her & Donna. We also double-dated with those two Calabogie guys we ended up marrying, about 6 or 7 months apart. As so often happens, when Birdie & Shirley moved to the Kindcardine area after Mitch was born we drifted apart and lost touch. I regret that. My deepest sympathy to her sons & their families. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Hold on to the memories
Mitch, Brittney and family, We are very sorry for your loss. May you experience memories of happy times and the wonderful life lessons that mothers share.
