To the Hinz family with deepest sympathies from the Cookes (Paula, Steve, Anson Sr., Kay, James, Ping, Anson)
A favorite time with Shirley we like to recall is from a Caribbean cruise she took with us a few years ago. We had a lot of fun shopping, watching shows, and, of course, eating. A lot. But the most important part of the cruise time together was just that, the time together. We will always remember that with great fondness, and the important role Shirley played in it.

I will miss my mother so much! She had the biggest heart ever - always thinking of what other people needed. I feel she is at peace and pain free. Much Love and Light, mom! Love Connie.

I am so sorry to read that Ms. Shirley has passed away in death. Please accept my family's condolences. May your hearts find peace and comfort from the Bibles promise at John chapter 5 verses 28 and 29 that soon God will resurrect back to life on earth our loved ones who have died so that we can be reunited with them.

Dear Hinz family,
I'm so sad to hear of your Mothers passing. I have very very fond memories of Shirley as we were neighbors for many years. She was so loving and caring to all and always helped us out when needed with our kids Kari and Kris. A wonderful person, I'll remeber her kind spirt and her great laughter.
I will not be able to make the visitation, as I will be in Texas, however Dave will be there.
Please know I'm thinking of ALL of you at this very sad time.
With Sincere Sympathy,
Lynn and Dave Saunders and Family
