Shelby Fanning Obituary

Shelby J Fanning, age 69, a resident of West Salem, Wisc., passed away on October 18th, 2025.

Born on December 28th, 1955, Shelby lived a life marked by quiet strength and deep compassion. She was known for her loving nature, her understanding heart, and unwavering independence that inspired those around her. Shelby left a lasting impression on all who had the privilege of knowing her.

She is remembered with love by her daughter and son-in-law, NANA to five grandkids and four great-grandkids. Her presence in their lives was a source of warmth and guidance-a steady light that will continue to shine through the generations.

In accordance with Shelby's wishes, no service will be held. May her memory bring comfort to those who knew her and peace to those who carry her love forward. FOREVER MY SUNSHINE.
