She was so amazing!! Never judgmental and always a great listener. I was her server for years and she always came to whatever restaurant I was at. I will certainly miss her so much!!! She handled her cancer with such strength and grace. She never complained and she always looked her best. My heart breaks that she is gone, but I know she´s suffering no more. My prayers are with Dave and the family.

My beautiful Shelly. You were my first neighbor in Lake Elsinore, my good friend who was always there for us, and also a darn good co-worker who always made time to make us all smile.
You would come over to our family holidays and every birthday party and share your laughter, love and family with everyone. You will forever be missed my beautiful Shelly. until we meet again. sending love and prayers to Erica, Heather and Dave.

I´m so sorry, Heather and Erica. Your mom was so kind. She´s a part of my core memories from childhood. Your house was the first time that I ever saw a house impeccable in every room. There was never any water prints on the mirrors. I´m not even kidding When I say this. to this day, your mom has had an impact on me. Being in your house was the first time I felt comfortable and at ease And it´s because it was so perfectly clean and organized. My house is like that to this day and I never have spots on my mirrors. a little bit of her legacy that has carried on in my life. RIP Shelley McCabe Barton

I knew Shelley a long time. I work with her for quite a while and enjoyed every moment of it. She helped me get the job that I need a very badly at the time and I´ll always thank her for that. She loved her family very much. I am also battling cancer, but she is the bravest woman I have ever met. I don´t know how she did it. I admire her and respect her and she will be sorely missed blessings in heaven and Shelley.
