Oh Rose, it IS one of Shirley's Angels :bf:....Thank you so much for your help :kissy:
All the way from Canada.....what a long flight she made to find me! She is beautiful, and now is all the more special because I have all that wonderful information.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
I love her and everyone comments on how special she is......and so she is.
And Thank you Anne for righting her up :kissy:....she deserves to stay on this page until after Christmas so all can see her, don't you think?
Thank you.
Anne:
Well done Rose, clever girl you are! :kissy: What a fascinating story about this lady, thank you.

Thanks Anne/Rosieposie:
Lucked out googling here. When Anne mentioned that it looked like Shuly, I wondered IF it was Shirley (as that is also my deceased Moms name). Then tried that, and a few other last name combos -- and Bingo!
Kinda nice to have a *lady* Glass-blower item here on the board (and being a Canadian person) as I learned something new too. I will now be on the lookout for an Angel done by her.
:'( My Mom died of Ovarian Cancer also......Nasty disease.
So I think RosiePosie should feel honored about her PW Angel. It is a Woman that did it, and the story behind it -- and brings to light that Nasty disease that effects Women.
I hope you treasure it Rosie !!

I read in the article that Sir Elton John even had one of her Angel -- maybe you have his ??? Maybe he was downsizing....??
Glad I was able to help on this one :thup:

This lovely Angel has been so special to me and so I read with great sadness that Shirley Elford, her maker, passed away earlier this month.
An announcement was made here:

An amazing glass artist and one who drew so many people to her. Now pain free and at peace.
I will always be grateful to you Rose for identifying her Angel for me..... a million hugs to you.
I make no apologies for showing the picture of my Angel again.
Anne:
So sad to hear, Rosie, and thanks for sharing the news with us. I've adding a Glass News link on the board as well: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,44794.0.html.
Did you spot that the newspaper wants to hear from angel owners as well?
