We are heartbroken to share that Michelle Nelson passed away the morning of July 31st, 2025. She was a deeply loved daughter, sister, and most importantly, a devoted mother to Knox and wife to Luke. Her loss leaves an unimaginable void in the lives of those who knew her and loved her.

Shelly was the heart of her family - warm, generous, and endlessly loving. She poured everything she had into being a loving wife and making sure her daughter was loved, supported, and could be her own independent self. Now, as her family faces this devastating loss, we want to come together to support them in any way we can.

This fund is being created to help ease the burdens they are now facing for memorial costs, day-to-day expenses, and future needs. Our hope is to give them the ability to grieve without adding to the financial worry.

If you feel moved to contribute, know that every gift, no matter what size, is deeply appreciated. Most of all, thank you for holding Shelly's family in your thoughts and prayers.
