Guestbook

  1. I was so sad to see that Shelly had passed. She often was roped into babysitting me when my parents wanted to go carousing with her Uncle Tom. She’s with him now, she missed him so very much. I believe that is our reward, our loved ones, one of the blessings that God grants us along with rest which she surely deserves.

  2. We had a nice long visit about 2 weeks ago. You were so proud to be a grandma. I’m so glad u got to experience that. We go way back to St Mary’s grade school and that’s a long time knowing each other. I will miss you. Rita Simonson

  3. I miss you Shelly you’re a great friend I’ll never forget when we were riding our motorcycles it was so much fun I love you

  4. I grew up with Shelly in my early years.
