On May 19, Shelly tragically passed away in a house fire. Shelly was living in the basement and was unable to make it out of the basement. She lived a care-free life raising 2 children Ashley and Zach.
Unfortunately Shelly did not have life insurance and there was not any insurance on the home. So the expenses fall on the burden of Ashley and Zach. Shelly deserves to have a proper funeral and memorial service.
Ashley and her husband Kyle have 4 children, and Zach and his fiancee Courtney have 2 children.

As of right now a funeral will be next month June 21 tentatively. We are still waiting on all the things to come back to identify Shelly properly with the state medical examiners office. Ashley, Zach, Courtney, and Aunt Gwen went and met with the funeral home today to make arrangements for when Shelly's body is released back. Please continue to pray for them in this time as they process all of this.
