“In loving memory of Shirley Young Mercer Wheeless, May God give you comfort in your time of grief. I would also like to say that Aunt Shirley was an amazing woman. She loved her children, neices and nephews, grandchildren,and her brothers and sisters. I remember the times when my pawpaw and nanny ( John and Rosie Young) would go over to her house and play games to pass the time by. I remember sitting in Aunt Shirleys' lap and felt the warm love she had for everyone. We will all miss Auntie.”
