Miss Shirley very much reminds me of a great Southern grandma I used to have. Southern Grandma’s have that quiet humble sweetness that I miss. My Grandma Yetta used to spend days cooking for holidays. How I miss my Grandma Yetta. She was a great southern cook in our family.
A woman like her reminds me of my grandmother. Hardworking, friendly, and always on the go. Growing up in Comanche Texas I remember pretty much everyone worked hard and could be counted. Things sure have changed. I was lucky enough to grow up in a time when that work ethic was an everyday thing
Most people who were not raised in, or do not live in Texas, think of brawny cowboy types when they think of Texas. I think of the strong Mothers that raised those cowboys and made them what they are.
Thanks Bob, for a beautiful scene in passing. Ms. Shirley reminds me of my mother, grandmother and my great grandmother. Always toiling and working. Women like these left their blueprint for us to follow. May God bless.
This is a great segment featuring a memorable lady. Shirley Smith Rooney sold her Burnt Biscuit Cafe in 2006 and retired. She passed away on August 10, 2021 at the age of 86. The Alpine Avalanche has her obituary online with a nice picture of Shirley and her husband, Pat, who predeceased her.
God bless this women. Love to live out there also. I am a Fort Worth Texan. Love this show. I live in Franklin ,N.C. now.o how I miss Texas. God bless you all.
Another lesson taught for the Machinest who may not of thought of this safe way to thread. I don’t have a cam lock Chuck so won’t be trying “close in thread ing” but I sure like to see “experience” doing a job 👍
Shirley passed at the ripe old age of 86 in 2021. She sold the business in 2006 and enjoyed 15 years of retirement.
So happy to hear that!
I Love the food segements. She is a hard worker and for sure is one of the many reasons that make small towns great.

Didn't make it to a hundred, died last year (2021) at 86.
Somebody's got to make the donuts
"And she can warm your soul...". That is tge main "why" people go there
Cowboy up; early in the morning.
running a restaurant is very hard work. she was a dear soul; many she rest in peace
Gos bless her! What a great accomplishment, to still be doing something and making yourself useful and loved and having that turnout each morning!
This is so precious

I love the name Burnt Biscuit Cafe. Wonderful story.
I always appreciate elderly people that WANT to get to 100. A lot of older people give up
I'll never get there, but thank you all for this! Beautiful.
This is my favorite episode of TCR 🍩🍪💖
What an awesome story! Now I need a fried pie.
