Our hearts are broken. We am praying for Shelby and all of the family. We worked at Boss Bison Ranch, and attended some Pow Wow. That is how we met. Shelby was the bravest girl we met. She had an old soul with a special heart. She will be a beautiful Angel watching over you allr. May she rest with out pain. Prayers and smoke.

god looked around his garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon this earth, and saw your tired face.He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.God,s garden must be beautiful

he always takes the best He knew your were suffering,He knew you were in pain.He knew that you would never get well on earth again.He saw the road was getting rough and the hills was getting hard to climb so he closed your weary eyelids,and whispered, "Peace be thine".It broke our hearts to lose you but you did not go alone, For part of us went with you the day god called you home.Rest in Peace Shelby.

My deepest condolences go out to everyone of you. I can't imagine what you're going through right now. I didn't know Shelby personally but I had been following the posts on Facebook and continuously prayed for her. I will continue to pray for the family during this difficult time.

The Lord is near to the broken-hearted and He binds up their wounds. Shelby left an impression on everyone she met. She was sassy and comical, animated and blunt, cocky and sweet all at one time! Truly she blessed many lives and affected those she met. Go rest high on the mountain Shelby! You will be missed.
