“My deepest sympathy goes out to the family, friends, colleagues and neighbors on the passing of the beloved Faye Shirley. She was one of my faves. She is sorely missed.”
My deepest sympathies to Faye’s family. I worked with her at CT Baptist Homes about 33 years ago and I immediately recognized her smile from her picture. She was a lovely woman and loved her patients. May she Rest In Peace!
