His insurance career spanned forty years in sales and as Executive Vice President.
Shelly married Leota "Lee" Miller on April 26, 1952, and spent 67 years together. Shelly enjoyed traveling over the years with his family. Together, they visited most of the countries in Europe as well as most of the United States. Family vacations to Hilton Head Island were especially memorable for Shelly.
Shelly was a loving and caring husband and father and is survived by two children, Marsha Coleman and Dan Miller, both of Mansfield. He also loved and enjoyed being around his grandchildren, Kelly Coleman of Cleveland, Bryan (Alicia) Miller of Cleveland, Jason (Allie) Miller of Columbus and Allison Miller of Columbus; and three great-grandchildren.
