May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together. God bless her family and friends during this difficult time.
Shelley was one of a kind... and at times, too kind. She had a good heart. She always looked out for others. I will miss her watching over our "patch" and giving us the gossip (sort of speak)
