George Fancey wrote a sympathy message

“We met Shirley when we decided to try our hand at Jamming; it was at Parker Hall, Victoria Vale, around 2015 or so. Shirley got our attention the minute she greeted us and went on to perform a Wilf Carter song. Wilf was my 'music hero' back in the 50's & 60's. She sang his lyrics, played his guitar music & yodeled as required. Shirley was 'the real deal'. Humble, passionate about keeping the old music alive, a dedicated family person, and encouraging to the rest of us. We will miss her a lot.”
