Knew Shelby from Moore County Farm Bureau, always looked forward to seeing her, a great Lady!!
Richard & family,
I had hoped to see you this morning at your mom’s service but unfortunately I’m not going to be able to join you. She was a spunky little lady that the world will miss.
You will be in my thoughts & prayers.
I worked with Shelby at Hardee’s. Always had a smile. She will always be loved and remembered. Rest well my friend and I’ll see you again. I love you.
