Such a kind person during the years my kids were teenagers ! Always treated them with understanding and respect while the shopped endless times at The Edge… I will always remember her smile she greeted them with always!!!

For 32 years I've been buying my sandals and stuff from the Edge. I fell in love with Shelley (and Marlo) immediately. 25 years ago, my husband, Carlton, became a loyal fan, as well. And finally our dog, Tipsy, for 17 years, couldn't walk anywhere near the Edge without demanding to go in. She was always welcomed with a loud "Tipsy, Tipsy!" and a hug, and, of course, a few treats, from a treat bowl with Tipsy's name on it. Shelley was broken hearted when Tipsy passed. She and Marlo sent us a beautiful set of wind chimes with Tipsy's name on it. We are broken hearted now, stunned by Shelley's passing. She was a loving and trusted friend. Every time we hear Tipsy's chimes, we'll shed a tear and remember Shelley's sweet soul.

Shelley was lovely to me and my family. She always made us feel welcome and included. My family loved her and her family very much. Such a shining soul will continue to be a light in the hearts of all who love her. Our sincere condolences to Tim, Marlo and family, as well as the community Shelley embraced and gave her whole heart to.

Shelley never let anyone feel lonely at any given event. She would spot you if you were feeling shy or like an outsider and make you an insider. Her and Steph helped me pick out a watch for nursing school (when I originally started that endeavor many many moons ago). I’m so saddened for all of her friends and loved ones and I will always be grateful for her never letting me feel like an outsider. RIP… tell Palma and Renee I say hello and I miss them. I’m sure they are welcoming you with arms wide open and making you laugh (probably with inappropriate jokes and shenanigans). You were a beautiful person inside and out and you surely will be missed ❤️

A long, long time ago, as in late 1980 and 1981, Phyllis' home consisted of Phyllis, Marlo, Shelley, Ellen Murray, and her two sons Tom and Todd. As Tom and Shelley were very close in age, naturally, as it is with brothers and sisters, there was a lot of in-fighting. Now, as I come to find out, it was because Tom (he told me this the other day) had a secret 'crush' on Shelley. And, she wanted nothing to do with him! Ah, teenagers.......

Us Murrays and Bedfords had a special 'in' for Marlo and Shelley, Dan and Phyllis. We will miss you terribly Shelley.

I feel like this photo sums up Shelley for me. A generous spirit full of love and life. Our world won't ever be the same now that you are gone. I love you with all my heart Shelley.
