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
