Brooke Shelby, Mike Shelby's Daughter

Hi this is Michele, Brooke's aunt and many people have reached out to ask how they can help after Brooke's sudden loss of her dear father, Michael Shelby. Mike or Mr. Shelby, as many of you know him as, has dedicated his life to guiding, supporting and influencing children from all walks of life during his years at St Pete Catholic, AMI and Pace. Mike had a way of connecting with everyone through his genuineness and sincerity in everything he did and was deeply loved for it. At home, the apple of his eye was his beautiful daughter, Brooke Shelby Since she was first able to walk and talk she wanted to be surrounded by animals and talked her dad into being surrounded by dogs, cats, hamsters, fish and her favorite, horses. Brooke was enrolled in Richard O. Jacobson Technical High School where she graduated early from the veterinary science department and also obtained her Vet Tech degree. I know her dad would want her to follow her dreams of having a career in dealing with four-legged animals and would not want her to worry about expenses in this unforseen, trying time. There will be a Celebration of Life in the near future, which will be announced on FB. In lieu of flowers please donate to the GoFundMe account.
