Our beloved Shelly passed away Sunday, Jan. 24, 2021. We felt the sky open and our hearts filled with sadness and joy at the same time. The expected, inevitable moment for our dearly loved daughter and sister who was called home to an eternity with Jesus. How appropriate that he called her home on a Sunday, as she always wanted to be in church on this day. The greatest and most prized end for all believers to reach the end of our life here on earth and be called to our heavenly home. Where we long to finally see Jesus, be made perfect, and filled with love as we have never experienced here on earth. Perfection…that only God can give, an overwhelming joy as she reunites with all of our loved ones who are there to greet her. Peace…as she has never known her entire life. The freedom from poor health and a lifetime of doctors, test, hospitals, poking and prodding. The freedom from the chains that bound her to a life without choice. 
Shelly has left her pain behind and was carried into heaven where tonight she has comfort, peace, joy and love ❤️ We will miss you Shel but we will see you again…until then we are left with a little hole in our hearts, and also a peace, knowing where you are tonight. We will love you and miss you until we meet again.
