Shelley Ann Wood and Ashley Taylor Sweeney obituary

Shelley Sweeney Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Shelley Ann Wood and Ashley Taylor Sweeney
"Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4
Taken from our physical embrace, but never our hearts, we remember the lives of two sweet souls who departed from us a year ago. Christmas is the time to celebrate the Birth of a Child who gave everything so that we could have the opportunity to spend eternity with Him and those we love. Even through the pain of our loss, we celebrate because we can imagine the sound of Shelley and Ashley's joy and laughter in heaven and we look forward to the time when we will see them once again. Until then, we hold dear our thoughts, prayers, beliefs and remembrances for all they have meant to us and to everyone whose lives they touched in their brief time here on Earth.
We Love You Forever,
Mom, Dad, Fred, Kristie, Michael, Lindsey, Brandon, and Robbie

God Bless each of you. I can't imagine how hard this year has been for all of you. Please find comfort in knowing how touched others were by just knowing them. They will always have a place in my heart and Shel will forever be one of the best friends I've had. Love you all, Nita

God needed two more pretty flowers to finish one of his many flower gardens so he took two loveing, careing women that he find. They are at peace now with no more pain. God bless them and God bless the family's that are left to live with the pain.
