Shelley,
I don't want to believe that you are really gone. You are such an amazing and beautiful woman. You were such a huge role model to many people, including me. You were always smiling even when you had a bad day, you would never show it. You helped me in so many ways, I can not thank you enough. I am going to miss you so much Shelley. I am lost for words still, and tears continue to fall everyday but I am trying to be strong for you because I know that's what you would want. Now you are in a better place, looking down on all of us and you will forever be missed and loved. Until we meet again, rest in paradise Shelley.

I will always and forever remember you Shelley. I could always count on you to have a smile on your face when I walked through that door. And it was contagious you made me smile no matter what was going on or no matter what I was going through. You were also one of the first people to bring me out of my shell and and teach me not to give a crap what people think. I love you girl always will. Cause we were family not just Co workers.

I have been trying my best to not cry about your departure, so what I do is think about what you represented to me. Laughter, is the one word I use to sum up our encounters together. We were 2 people with a warped sense of humor and who could simply look at each other and bust out laughing, and considering most people say I don't smile enough, your were the one person who always had me smiling, and I give you much love for it. So laughter and love is what I'll always think of when I think of you. I ask that God wrap his loving arms around your family at this time, and that you Rest well My friend, you will always be loved and greatly missed.

Shelley, you were one in a million and a wonderful person to be around. When one was down or just needed someone to talk to you you always had some kind words to say to make you feel good inside. Always taking time out of your busy schedule to listen that was you. You never once turned your back on me when I needed help. You are the GREATEST. There will always be a special place in my heart for you. God will keep you in the palm of his hand. I was truly blessed to know you.
