I had the pleasure of caring for Shirley for a few days at the beginning of September. From the short time we had together I know that she was a very kind, gracious and sweet spirited woman. We had a lot of fun talks together those few days. She was more concerned about my comfort, than she was about her own. Was I getting enough to eat, was I getting a good night’s sleep and not being bothered by her TV. I’m sure the people who love her know exactly what I mean by that. I know how much she loved and how much she was loved in return, because during my visit, family, friends and neighbors were all checking in to see that she was well cared for, and that she was happy and safe. I was very grateful for that and that our paths had crossed again. Just wish we had her here for a little longer.
I had the pleasure of knowing Shirley Moscato during my junior and senior year at DGSHS. Shirley was always very kind and would help out with a kind word or support in any way she could.
May you rest in peace Mom Shirley, you have done a wonderful job during your stay down here. It is now time to enjoy your other life with your loving husband and family in the Heaven’s above.
