It saddens me to share news of the death of my aunt, Lou Ann Shirley. I will post links to her obituary when it becomes available. She remains the beloved wife of Jon Shirley, the devoted daughter-in-law of Hardy and Mary Shirley. Mother of three Jesperson children, and sister-in-law to Ted, Emily, Frank, Savanne, and Myvanwy. https://1drv.ms/b/c/41cc93ed6c5423d6/IQDuu4i3XFsmRKB3Z6T95Cx0AaMe9WtKb6FJg9wt9y-dkag?e=jCqboJ That excerpt from a family note is very revealing of her personality and interests. The picture below was taken by my Grandfather 52 years ago this month.
