Terry, you have honored Shelly’s life with your words, actions and unconditional love. I am so happy that she was able to spend the rest of her life with you. God bless you, good and faithful servant.

Thank you Terry for sharing this. Those shovels of dirt hit me hard as well, as I have never heard that. As hard as those sounds for me, I cannot imagine for you! Shelley was an amazing person, and always will be to me. I still recall her post when just after South Africa she posted her diagnosis. That post is still as surreal to me as her passing. To me it still does not seems real . I will always hold her in my heart. Thanks to you for sharing her journey with us for the past 14 months. I will hold you in my hear t as well. You did have the perfect relationship. Shelley said to myself, Art, and Ed on our last visit "This sucks, cancer sucks, I never thought...". I can't agree more. Terry- I am glad you were able to have her as long as you did.

Blessings to you Terry and Shelly for sharing your journey!!!

You tribute was a Blessing to read, as it too, was a reminder of the value of Family, Friends, and Community! Thank you for sharing this Gift over the past 14 months!!!

Blessings and Peace!!! 💞💐💞

Bless you Terry - thank-you for sharing through Shelley's devastating illness. We will keep you in our thoughts and be ready to ride and walk with you when you're ready. We will never forget Shelley - her smile and loving kindness will stay with Steve and I forever.

Terry,
Thank you for your thoughtful, caring words and for sharing your journey with Shelley this past year on Caring Bridge. This blog has been personally helpful and has allowed me to stay connected, even if only from a distance. Shelley's service was so meaningful and true celebration of her life, before her illness took hold.
Blessings to you, and to all who surround you with love and support.

Terry, thank you for sharing the notes and allowing so many of us to be part of "Team Shelley" What a privilege and a blessing!. I have never in my life seen so much love and devotion between two people and especially from you during these past 14 months. May God continue to strengthen you as you enter this next chapter in your life without the love of your life physically with you. Please know that the candles will continue to be lit and the prayers will be said for you.

Your journey with Shelley will live on and may you find her in every corner of your day and life. I bet she is up in heaven training for her next race, flying high as an angel. Terry, your love for Shelley is truly an amazing gift and what a true love story you two shared together. Smile because she was a amazing part of your life.

Thank you Terry for all the posts, and God bless you for doing so. Donna and I were at your wedding, and I found the few photos I took there, never imagining that 14 years later I would be reading this, and writing this post. Life is beautiful, and life is sad, and we are all blessed to share it together. Thank you again.

A beautiful life, a beautiful love. Thank you both for being such beautiful examples.

God bless you Terry.
