I was sorry to hear the passing of your mom, grand mom, great grand mom, co-worker and friend. Shelly who always greeted you with a smile on her face. I worked with Shelly as a window clerk at the Merrillville post office she was T-6 over the window clerks. I will forever be grateful for Shelly getting me to apply for a position in the finance office downtown. I spent the last 14 years of my postal career working as a payroll and data collection clerk. I thank you for having a genuine mom who would help those around her. You are blessed to have shared a lifetime of memories,
Leon Jacobs (Postal Clerk)

Shelley as I called her as a friend and as we called her in the post office was a friend to all, we had great times outside the post office as well bowling, bid whist and just talking to each other about any and everything the one thing about Shelley that could brighten your day was her smile when you saw that smile it took you through your day so from myself, my husband and her "GPOW'R" group Gary Post Office Workers Retiree's which she was a member of when the group first began we wish to send our love and prayers to her son and family who honored her in the style she wished may you rest in Heavenly peace our dear friend until we see you again and get that bid game going we will always love you

I was so shocked to see Shelly's obit in the paper! She was a lifelong friend of my mother, Anna Coates, and my first employer as a babysitter for Kim and Kendall. I am truly sorry for your loss and pray that your family find comfort in warm memories and the knowledge of the love she had for you.
