Shelly was a member of the Country Music Associates in St. Mary, MO. She cherished every moment with her family and had a heart of gold. Shelly was a headstrong woman and could light up a room when she entered with her smile. The day Shelly passed away, a part of us left with her. She is now our guardian angel.
