Donna, Rob and Steve, and your loving and large extended family, Please accept my condolences on the loss of your sweet and caring Mom. I have great memories of growing up with the family and many happy gatherings at the beach and in Cranston. May her memory be a blessing to you always xo

I’m very sorry to hear about Shirley’s passing. Shirley and Seymour were friends with my parents, Stanley and Arlene Kaplan. Shirley called me after my parents passed and was so kind. May her memory be a blessing.
So, so sorry to hear about Shirley’s passing. She was a wonderful person.
