Shirley is an extremely proud mother and grandmother who is family focused, blessed by God, and saved by Grace. While having a passion for Accounting in her career and also serving as a Paralegal at one point, her greatest accomplishment will never be where she worked, the money she made, her worldly possessions nor the title behind her name. It’s her family that brings her such pride and joy. Being called “Mama” and “Grandma” thrills her heart completely and is her greatest calling in life. She’s a lover of nature, animals, and delights in pursing her passion for music whether singing at church, with her youngest daughter, as a lead singer in rock and roll bands, or simply singing nursery rhymes to her grandchildren. She’s so incredibly blessed by God and gives Him all the honor and glory for all things in her life.

Gregory C. Johnson (The Quiet Computer Guy) is the mastermind behind Light Love Hope and handles all things technical behind the scenes.  He has been a long time friend of Shirley’s family for going on 30 years now.  He has a musical background and plays an awesome bass guitar.  He is also a wild and crazy professor in Rockford, Illinois.  He once studied abroad in England, and he has experience as a chef as well. You’ll never find a more dedicated and true friend than our very own Gregory C. Johnson!

Shirley is the proud mother of two beautiful young ladies. She enjoys spending time with them on their ranch in the deep South with their three paint horses. Always looking for an adventure, she looks forward to hikes in the mountains chasing waterfalls, or scouring the coast for beautiful lighthouses! Shirley writes to encourage others and often times shares things that motivate and inspire her. She believes in living life to the fullest because no one is promised the gift of another day. Join her as we honor our bodies, minds, hearts, souls, and our Almighty Creator, God above!
