Remembering the extraordinary life of
Mary Shelton
January 17, 1961 - January 20, 2024
“Deep peace of the running waves to you,
Deep peace of the flowing air to you,
Deep peace of the smiling stars to you,
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of the watching shepherds to you,
Deep peace of the Son of Peace to you.”
Mom loved this Ancient Gaelic Prayer and had it hanging in her room.
Funeral Information
Dad has completed his cancer treatment and surgeries. Thank you all for your support and prayers! He is still unable to travel, so we have postponed the funeral until further notice. More details to come.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Mom loved this quote by Mark Twain. She kept it on a small card in her wallet.
