Shirley was my mentor. She expected a lot from from each individual and you wanted to perform to meet those expectations. She and Daryl taught me a lot and I thank them for that. They gave me the opportunity to follow a dream to become a travel agent and then a travel agency owner. I have thought of Shirley and Daryl often. Shirley will be missed.

I had no idea. Shirley was a wonderful friend and she will be missed very much. I will send out the information to the PHS class of 1953. They will want to know. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I met Shirley through Soroptimist.....we would laugh when I would tell her that I used to be afraid of her! We became good friends with her and Darryl and had some wonderful adventures and parties together....we once traveled to Portland, the Quicks, Norenbergs and Oostraa, to,attend the Antique Roads Show...what a wonderful memory. When we bought our current house, the ladies were helping me paint and Shirley put her hands on her hips and told us...well I have bad shoulders so I can.t paint above my shoulders and bad knees so I can't paint below my knees! We all laughed and she paint a nice stripe around the wall....lots of laughs, always a smile.....will miss you my friend!

The Norenbergs befriended my husband even before I joined him in Crescent City. Shirley and Darryl were a bright spot in my world when I first moved and continued to be until they moved away. Shirley's positive and cheerful demeanor always inspired and comforted me; to see her smiling face always made any day a good one. When I was desperate to find a spot for myself in CC, Shirley put me to work doing outside sales at the travel agency. It was probably the best job I ever had. Some of the best travel experiences Brooks and I have enjoyed were in Shirley and Darryl's company. My mom and I traveled to Hong Kong and China with Shirley in 1990, and my mom reveled in that trip until she died. Shirley was a great bridge player and partner. She regularly subbed in the wine drinking Thursday group where she earned the loving nickname - Shit Shirley. The name accompanied most occasions when she held the winning trick or trumped what the player hoped was a winner or held all the outstanding trump in a defending hand. My heart aches for Darryl and Janet and Janet's children who were so loved by Shirley. And my heart aches for me and for the void Shirley's physical absence will create in the world. But the wonderful memories and recollections of her will remain always.

Shirley, you were much more to me than my best friends Mom, You were kind, inclusive and always welcomed me with open arms. I feel blessed and honored for having you in my life, You were a patient mother, a constant mentor and loving wife. Although it's been years since we last spoke, My memory of you is still strong a bond that couldn't be broke. My nickname, you referred to me back in the day was "Sport", I thought of it as a term of endearment, a name I'd carry with pride and support. I truly believe, God brings people into our lives, that in later times we can reflect on that otherwise would be our demise. Your love that shined so bright on your family and friends will carry on because of your boundless warmth and love that never ends. All my love, Nena
