Uncle James you are my hero. You always let me know when I was wrong or right. You shared the family history with me. When my dad passed in 1999 you stepped in on his behalf. You never let me forget to be Shelley proud. Thank you for loving me and guiding me. Kimberly Rose Shelley

One could not ask for a better neighbor and true friend. I am so sad to know that we will not have another great visit. Yet delighted that he has found his way back home. I am so Blessed to have known the man James Shelly.

Heartbroken and speechless. The patriarch of our family is gone. You made sure that we knew the history of the Shelley family. This one stunned me but I know that you wouldn't want us to be sad. We just celebrated your 85th birthday and now you left us for heaven. Can't wait to see you again in heaven.
