Gwen, I have missed you so much while you have been off spending time with your family during your sweet little mamma's strong fight. Please know my thoughts and prayers were with you everyday. I enjoyed Shelby sooo much! She had a way about her that made everyone she met feel special to even be around her. I'll always remember her. And Gwen you are truly special too and you also have the same gift.
Love,

To the family - So sorry to hear of your loss. Shelby was one of the first people my mother (Martha Lewis) came in contact with after being diagnosed with breast cancer, and what an inspiration she was to her. At the support group meetings she was always so uplifting, and when my mother passed away she was there for visitation. Her life here was certainly not without purpose, and she will be greatly missed.

In loving memory of my sister, Shelby. We've laughed and cried together and we've fought but in the end, we always knew that we loved each other and have always been there for each other. Shelby, you will always have a place in my heart and we will continue to talk on a daily basis. I will miss you so much but I'm so grateful that you are walking and talking once again. May you rest in peace!
Lovingly.....
Your Sister, Pat
