Oh Shelby the stories we can tell, the laughs we had & the looks we exchanged when we were looking to blame someone else for something we did. Mostly (Ron). I will cherish our road trips and the music we rocked out to. Spread your wings my friend because you have a bigger job watching over all of us.

We are so powerful - in one second we can change our thoughts, feelings and attitudes. The one thing we should never back away from is our Faith, in God and each other. For within that second we are so powerful we can change almost any outcome.

Shelby Lynn, those closest to you shall remember cherished moments you had with family on the farm, all the school fun throughout their years with you, the numerous events and times with friends at the university, and even more important has surely been every beautiful minute with your family and friends since. May you and those readying this find and cherish unconditional love and peace from now throughout eternity.
