    To all of Shelly's family, just reading this saddens me so much. Shelly was one of my favorite people to visit our store. Through her visits, I got to know her quite well and we had a nice friendship. She kept me up to date on her sickness and would always tell me to keep praying for her which I did. I will certainly miss her visits and our chats. RIP sweet lady💓

    This message comes late but with great love and sadness. Shelley was a firecracker! Our times together growing up were funny, loud and filled with great fun xx She left her mark on the world with her laugh, her smile and her love of life. We are all so lucky to have known her and she will be missed by so many. Thank you to the family for sharing this amazing lady.
