On behalf of the David Nemmers family, I wish to express our sincerest gratitude for your services rendered with the utmost professionalism, courtesy, and demeanor that the occasion of my mother's passing demanded. I wish to thank all of those "behind the scenes."

We deeply appreciate the care, compassion and attention to detail that everyone at Shelley Family Funeral Home showed in the funeral service and the other many details around the passing of our mother, Margaret Laingor.

We will always remember the care , attention, and compassion of Joseph, Lydia and all the staff at Shelley Family Funeral Home in this difficult time. - Linda Boswell, Scott Carter, and Debra Bailey

Dear Joseph and Lydia,

Thanks so much for the special care and help you were to us when we lost our loved one. You knew what to ask, how to set things up for us and how to point us in the right direction. We sincerely appreciate all that you have done for us not only with our current loss but also in the losses of the past.

Joe and Lydia did a wonderful job with the service, reminding us of small details that we might have forgotten and just generally being there whenever we needed them. A wonderful job from wonderful people. Thank you again for everything you did for us.

Our whole family was grateful for Joseph and Lydia's help and guidance. They were very kind and compassionate while still helping us find our way through all the decisions we needed to make. We never felt rushed. They do a wonderful job and I would highly recommend them!

Our whole family appreciates so much the care and compassion we received at Brian's passing. You handled so many of the details when we didn't know how to proceed and relieved us of so many worries.
Our heartfelt thanks.

Thank you for all your help through this time of loss.

Joseph and Lydia
Our family would like to thank you so very much for your compassion and support during the week leading up to Tommy's services. You all made Tommy look so handsome, we received so many complements on him looking so peaceful. Every time we had a question, you would answer right away or you would find out. You took all of the worries from us on the day of his mass. We could focus on being present and grieving. Thank you.

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed Uncle Asa's funeral and the procession to the cemetery. We appreciate your great attention to detail.

We were impressed with the formal procession through Winfield. The graveside service was wonderful and touching. Taps, presentation of the flag and the the heartfelt words from the pastor all made for a beautiful day. Our heartfelt thanks.
