From Vicki Cristiani


HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHIRLEY!!!!

Can't believe our beautiful, self-reliant Shirley is celebrating yet another birthday. Wonderful to know she's enjoying her well deserved retirement in peaceful surroundings and, more importently, being cared for in such a loving way. My dad must be smiling down---along with her beloved sisters: Christy, Carrie, Babe and Emma---the clown of the Cristiani herd.

I figure "Shirley" was born about 1946.....quite remarkable!
And she looks like she is fully prepared to make the Hanneford Rodeo Route on a moments notice!

Hi Vicki,
Thanks so much for the great photo for Buckles blog.
You have a family that us fans will never forget as the Cristiani name is supreme in the circus industry.
Them on that MGM Pete Smith short is something the world will never see again.

Is that the park with all the

controversy over a founder who

was thrown out a while back
