Shelby, you are a beautiful soul! I wished we could turn back time. I had such a blast with you and hoping one day we'll do it all over again on the other side.

Sorry I did not know you, but know you came from good stock. Your mother and aunt were good and kind people, so I am sure you possessed these good qualities too. May you rest on peace.
