Shelley Buckner Obituary
Everywhere Shelley has lived she has made a mark and a huge impact on everyone in her life.
She had a caring heart. She fed the homeless and was a foster placement for dogs before they could be placed in a permanent home. Her dogs had more love and a better world than most humans.
For a year or so she had traveling nurses staying with her in her home and she kindly cared for them during their stay. She cared for her elderly neighbors whenever she could.
We have lost a very bright spirit in our circle of family and friends.
Her presence will be deeply missed by those who knew her.
A Celebration of Life will be held on August 11, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Club 90, located at 9065 South Monroe Street. All are welcome to come together and honor Shelley's life.
She embraced life fully and celebrated her family and friends every day. May her memory bring comfort and peace to all whose lives she touched.
