What the yearbook said
Shirks keen sense of humor and cooperative spirit has helped her win many lasting friends. She has participated in many school activities. Shirl intends to enter business after graduation. Maybe it’ll be “Simpson’s Inc.” One can never tell ! We hope the rest of her life will be as happy as the school years will seem once she looks back upon them.
