Shelly Lynn Bartholomew

Shelly! It's truly surreal how much time has passed since you've left us. You're always in my heart, you're a sister, just like Deb. I know you've made your mom comfortable and I can only hope my dads jokes are still funny. HA... thank God internet and cell phones weren't a thing when he was alive. Shelly, you're always this beautiful friend/sister. Every year I get to see the Shelly tree! I love your lumpy tree! I have a lumpy tree, so that's a good thing. LOVE YOU FOREVER AND EVER!

HELLO SHELLY! I am writing this to you as I know you know, I know you see and you know how much is going on down here! You would be SO proud of Debbie! She is taking on so much and is really and truly an amazing woman. Linda is there with you now and Don is still here with us, thank God for that! I got this reminder right when we were meeting Don and Deb for breakfast, what an irony. You are such a warm and loving memory to me. I hope VLR isn't causing problems up there. I know my dad...

My Dear Shelly,
The moment I met you when I brought "the girls" to stay with you when you first came to Bellingham I felt I had met a long lost treasured friend. You brought so much peace and happiness to my life, so many laughs, and moments of awe as we shared our stories of all the little furry friends we both love so much. Your precious spirit will live within my heart for all time. I miss and love you very much. Sadie, Dottie and I send our love to you, your sweet parents, and your...

Dearest Yeee....life without you is such a challenge, I miss you more than I can explain, what will I do without my Yeester here? Thank you for visiting me outside my window on nights that I am awake, sad and missing you. The owl is vocal, calming and comes when I need her most. I know you are reunited with family, friends and most important all of the thousands of pets you had, BTW, Wiggy misses you but she brings me much joy and laughter. I love you Yeee...

Dear Linda, Don, and Debbie,

I will always have found memories of the beautiful little girl, Shelly. You are in my thoughts and prayers and I am so sorry I will not be with you to celebrate Shelly's life. Ruth Ann Montgomery

So much of my high school life involves great, fun memories of Shelly and her wonderful parents and sister. Even though we lost touch for several years, when we recently reconnected, it was as though no time had passed. Shelly's sense of humor, her beautiful smile and positive outlook made the world a better place. She will never be forgotten. I miss her but am so happy she is free of pain and medications ... she is whole again and organizing the animals into a fun play group. Love and...
