With heavy hearts and deep gratitude for a life beautifully lived, we announce the passing of Judith Lynne Shelton, lovingly known as Lynne, who entered into the arms of her Savior on February 10, 2026, at the age of 81.

Born on October 30, 1944, in Royal Oak, Michigan, Lynne lived a life anchored in faith, creativity, and unwavering love for her family. A strong and devoted Christian, she trusted deeply in the Lord throughout every season of her life. Her faith was her foundation, her strength, and her peace.

Lynne had a vibrant creative spirit. She loved to paint and had a remarkable artistic eye, always finding beauty in the details of the world around her. She was an avid reader who could often be found with a book in hand, continually learning, imagining, and growing. Her creativity and quiet wisdom were gifts she generously shared with those she loved.

Above all else, Lynne cherished her family. She is lovingly remembered by her daughter, Tiffany, and son-in-law, Glenn; her son, Todd; her granddaughters, Makenzie and Madison; her grandson-in-law, Alex; her great-granddaughter, Adeline; her sister, Cheryl; her nephew, Justin; and her great-nephew, Mannix. Her love for them was constant and unconditional, and her legacy lives on through each of their lives.

While our hearts grieve her absence, we find comfort in knowing she is at peace and reunited with loved ones who have gone before her. Her strength, faith, creativity, and enduring love will continue to guide and inspire us always.

A private celebration of life will be held with family to honor and remember her beautiful life.

She will be deeply missed and forever cherished.
