It is with great sadness we are to announce, we lost our beautiful mother Thursday, August 1, 2024. 
 

Shelly was the glue to our family and was the organizer of all things bills, appointments, and schedules. While grieving the greatest loss of his life, our dad is learning to navigate a new world without his wife of 28 years. 
 

We ask that you keep our family in your prayers at this time, while we all learn to cope with the pain of losing such an important person in our lives. 
 

Nothing can prepare you for tragedy and loss, no matter how hard you try to rationalize a situation. With that being said, we are asking for help to get our dad through this unbearable time.  
 

We are greatly appreciative of any and all help, prayers, and kind words. Our sweet mother's final request was cremation and a celebration of life. Even in her final hours, she wanted the end to be bearable for those she loved the most, insisting that we focus on the good times. Any and all monetary donations collected will go towards crematory costs, the celebration of life, and helping out our dad with any other unplanned costs that will arise. We know these times are not easy for everyone, and any help will be appreciated. We will never be able to truly convey how grateful we are for all the love and support during this devastating time. Thank you.
