Working with Shelley for 12 years during my time at the Di, she will always be remembered her her outgoing personailty and her encouragement to grow as a person. Shelley and I have gone through some difficult and tough times while working at the Di and we supported each other during those times, the best memory I have is one Christmas when we were working together. During one of our night shift, Shelley and I decorated the staff office and the living room space for the clients. You can see the enjoy in Shelley's eyes when she noticed clients smiling the next morning when seeing the transformation. Always enjoyed Shelley sharing stories of her grandchildren with me. You can see the joy in her sees and in her voice when she spoke about her family.

Shelley always saw the best in everyone and wasn't afraid to stand up and be a voice for those who couldn't. Shelley has a special place in my heart and forever be remembered for being the mother figure.

Shelley, you will be remembered and missed by so many people that you have played an important part in their lives.

Shelley, you will always be remembered for the love and kindness you shared with all of those around you. You were always ready to have a good time, from going out for a night with Kayla and Steve, or hanging out with your Grandbabies. You will forever live on in the hearts of your children and grandchildren and all those who loved you. Rest easy beautiful.

I worked with Shelley on the night shift for close to 2 years at the DI. She was the one that client and staff all went to. I have stayed in touch ever since. I remember her fondly for sticking up for me when she saw that I was not being treated fairly and made sure I knew that I was doing a good job. I will always remember fondly the conversations I had with her over the years, and I am very saddened that she has moved on to the next life. My condolences to the entire family, she spoke of you all frequently. She always looked forward to any time with her family.

My deepest condolences to your family. I worked at the DI with her. I was afternoon shift and she was nights. When she would come back after her 4 off I would always arrive home late and my husband would say "Shelly's back on" We would talk and talk and when it was time for me to get my butt out of the place Shelly would always give me a huge hug. I left the DI 3 years ago but kept in touch. I am heart broken that I wasn't given a chance to tell her how very much I loved her.
