NO GREATER LOVE

The Washington Post

'She gave so much and asked for so little.” -Shirley Bell, cousin Shirley Bell as she calms her with a touch. “I watched her comfort Roz…Even though she couldn’t see and she couldn’t speak, but you always knew when Classie was close to her.' When Shirley's own father began ailing she didn’t know where to turn. At the time you had to dig for information about home care assistance. “But there was Classie...and she was just an inspiration to me. Just to see her caring and her unselfishness and her love and devotion, it was beautiful. So I had a mentor in Classie.' Shirley believes all Classie now looks forward to is being reunited with her beloved sister and brother in heaven.
