Shelly Lynn Lopaz, born on March 21, 1967, in Ogden, Utah, passed away on October 14, 2024, in Clinton, Utah. She was a beloved daughter, mother, sister, and grandmother who filled the lives of many with joy and laughter.

Shelly graduated from Mountain High Landes, a testament to her determination and spirit.

These living relatives will forever hold dear the memory of Shelly, whose spirit and love touched their lives profoundly.

Shelly was preceded in death by her daughter, Aspen Lee Lane, and her brother, Brian Shafer, both of whom remain in the hearts of those who loved them.

A Graveside service will be held Friday October 18, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. at the Lindquist's Memorial Park at Layton, 1867 No. Fairfield Road Layton, Utah. Friends may visit with family Friday October 18, 2024, from 2:00 to 2:45 p.m. at the Lindquist's Layton Mortuary 1867 No. Fairfield Road Layton.
