Now a part of me is gone. Up and gone on the morning of Aug. 27, 2009. I still don't know how to face life with out her. I was her baby and the stupid one. She always knew I wouldn't amount to much and I think that's why she always took up for me. I remember so many times I made my brothers and sisters laugh by aggravating Dad. It was all funny then but looking back on it now, I realize she was paying the price after the laughter was over. There were so many other times she paid the price for my stupidity and I cry for causing her pain. I will never forgive myself for being stupid and causing her pain. I wish I could go back to when I was 10 years old. I would change so much to comfort her. Mom, I am so sorry for being me. You were the only woman in my life that ever truly loved me. Now I'm alone with nowhere to turn. I face each day knowing I should have listened to you more. Knowing that I have failed you. I am sorry. I love you. HEAVEN WILL NEVER WELCOME A SWEETER MOM

The love and comfort a mother gives is not fully understood until she is gone. For all the times you held me close at night when I was having trouble breathing, for all whipping that I got, for all the life lessons that you taught, for the road map to true happiness, I thank you. I would not be who I am today if not for you. I still hope the phone will ring, I look over at you and dads place everyday without fell. I miss you guys so much. I would give up my future to spend one more day in the kitchen with you. The bible say "As a tree falls so shall it be". I know that you have entered into your rest and are waiting the call of the King. I understand that you are in the hands of a just god now and I take comfort in that. Scottie

Shirley (woo, that feels weird) was my Mamaw. At certain points in my life, she was also my mother and father. Mostly she was my best friend. Not a day goes by that I don't think about her. Yes, she was a Godly woman, but I remember her as the person who would never disappoint me, my home, and my shelter. If you ever needed anything, if it was in her power or anyone she knew's power, she would get it for you. If I had a problem, no one could make me feel better about it than her. I don't think anybody will ever affect me the way she did. You are in my heart forever, mamaw!
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I just wanted her family to know that I had the uttmost respect for Sister Shirey. She was a godly woman whose life was a testimony of the power of The God Most High Jesus Christ. She spoke with power and authority as a child of God and Church of the Living God has suffered loss, but she went on to claim her reward. Her life was a life that was an example for man and she manifested Jesus from all I have seen of her life. She was a godly woman and one of the few christians that showed compassion and a love of God.
