The Lacy family welcomed me into their family over 20 years ago and for that I am grateful. I feel privileged to be among the few that she chose to spend a few moments with while she was so ill. She dedicated her life to Jehovah and He will reward her for her faithful service.

Dear Aunt Carolyn, Danny and Cindy,
May God be with you and bless you bringing you comfort and peace knowing that Shelby is with her Dad and Father in Paradise. My fondest memories of Shelby Jean (Pete) are those times when you would visit my family in Amelia or when we would play together at family gatherings in Charlotte County. She was a special cousin to me.
Love and hugs to each of you.

Jim & Family ~
So sorry to learn of Shelby's passing. We worked together at Blue Cross and during that time I reminisced about my Daddy (Dick) cutting your hair when you were young at Sandy Hook. Shelby was so talented and had such a positive attitude. May your wonderful memories enfold and comfort each of you in God's love.

The times that we shared with Shelby in Brookfield will always be cherished, especially the family nights. Our prayers and thoughts are with the family.
Much Christian love, Rocky and Valerie Milton.
