I knew him a LONG time. My dad and brother used to bowl with him. He was very nice and would go out of his way to help people. He will be greatly missed!

My condolences to the entire family....I have several memories of Shelby...to many to pick from. All of which include bowling! From tournaments to weekly leagues. Lacy had a blast every week bowling with Shelby, and most of the time, his sons...My God give you the strength and guidance you need to process this lost. Love to all! Mary Lafferty
