Oh Shells, you were such a ray of sunshine. Loved your energy and sitting beside you at Budget all those years ago, chatting well into the night about so many things, and loads of laughs. I totally admired your young heart and inspiring words. You´ll be greatly missed but your spirit lives on within us all. Rest in peace Shells. xoxo
