PS. Today I remembered my grandma's nick name for your mom: "Sunshine." While my grandma wasn't a very jovial person, I can recall her happily saying, "Sunshine came over to visit us today!!" Your mom really improved the quality of Grandma and Grandpa's lives. RIP Sunshine...

Dear Tim and Evans family, I remember back about 50 years ago when Shirley would come across the road to visit my grandparents. She was kind and made them laugh. My parents and the rest of my family enjoyed her too. She was a lively gal and she won't be forgotten anytime soon. Tim, thanks for swinging by this April so we could visit with you and your mom. My sympathy to you in the loss of your mom and grandma... Janet Listebarger

I knew Shirley as a fun loving employee at General Mills where we exchanged pleasantries many times. I am sure she will be sorely missed by those who knew her.
