From the time our earthly father shared with her that I was his daughter and that she had a sister that she had never known, to the moment she reached out to find me and claim me as her sister, and until our Heavenly Father called her home, we have loved each other. Beause of her acceptance, and her love for me and because of her warm introduction of me to her entire family, she has given me a gift that I can never repay, MY FAMILY! A family that has embraced me with unconditional love. For this I am eternally grateful. Rest in peace my, sweet and spicy, fiesty sister! YOU ARE LOVED and NEVER FORGOTTEN!!! Your Sister. Mary (Frankie)

To the family, I know that you are going to miss our dear sister. Know that God is a comforter and He will give you peace that will pass all understanding. Sister Shirley is now with the Lord and there is no more pain and suffering. For that we are grateful. I remember Shirley in a special way. Her smile and oh how she praised the Lord! I will always have a fun memory and I will always cherish the friendship we had together. Remember Isiah 41:10. We should always be ready to meet our Lord. To Evangelist Dorothy Norwood, be encouraged. I am keeping you in our prayers. Love To the family, Evangelist Minnie Porter
