Linda and Bobby, I just saw the obituary for your mother in the paper. It took me back to those early years when we were friends, you living on Turnpike Street and us Thunbergs on Wayne Street. Thanks for those memories and and my sympathy to you and your families.

From the moment I met Mrs.Boles, —and I will add Mr. Boles— she always treated me with sweetness and generosity. Shirley is the mother of my very dear friend Linda Matheius, whom I met in 1978.
There were many beautiful memories made sharing times and special occasions with my family and the Boles family. Shirley will always hold a special place in my and my son Ryan’s heart. She was a special lady and now she is in peaceful rest and with our Lord, Jesus Christ. God Bless all of the Boles Family. ✝️🕊️
