When I was informed of Shelly’s tragic passing, I could not believe it! Oh how my heart hurt for her entire family, friends, coworkers and anyone who had crossed paths with such hard working, smart, caring, wonderful, thoughtful and amazing woman. I worked at the FedEx Milwaukee Air Cargo Ramp and when Shelly was leaving to pursue her career in nursing, I walked up to her and said, “FedEx’s loss will definitely be any hospital’s gain because you will be an excellent nurse to all of the patients that you will care for.” I am certain that I was not the only person to tell her that. After reading all of the previous condolences from those who worked with her in the medical field, my words were validated. My heart goes out to you all, now and in the days ahead. Shelly will live on in the thoughts, memories, love, from her children and grandchildren, brothers, sisters, friends and so, so many others. May you all take comfort in knowing this. You have my deepest sympathies... Diane Smith (FedEx Retired)
I fondly remember Shelley from working with her at Milwaukee Mitchell (cargo area) airport. She was a delightfully beautiful & radiant, genuinely helpful person and just a good human being. I was appalled when hearing this news about her. I am truly saddened about her and your loss. I will always remember her very fondly with some great memories. I'm so sorry.
My highest condolences to the Block and Vierck families.
From Cousin Paul W Vierck (son of Major Carl S. Vierck)
Dearest Friend Shelley
We will always love you and miss you!

My dearest friend Shelley. You are a sister to me and part of our family. I have know you more than half of our lifetime. Your beautiful smile, wonderful personality, giving heart and joy for your kids is something that will live on in my heart. I miss you every day. I’m sure you already have on a pair of rubber gloves looking to clean something! Your energy was contagious. Your love was abundant. Watch over us my friend until we meet again.

I am deeply sorry for this great loss. It is with great dismay that this happened. I pray that peace be extended for the family and that the remembrance of all of her blessed qualities are what envelopes you as the days pass by.
Shelley,
You were an amazing friend, co-worker, and nurse. I really enjoyed the time we spent working together over that last year at St. Mary's Hospital. It breaks my heart knowing that you had to leave us far too soon. Your smile, your voice, and your compassion for people is what I will always remember. Heaven is sure lucky to have gained such a wonderful soul.
To Shelley's family: My deepest sympathies are with you all. May God give you peace during these tough times that lay ahead. God bless
Shelly will be greatly missed. She will be remembered by her colleagues as a "nurse's nurse". A shining light that was taken too soon. Our prayers are with Shelly's family.
Shelly equals nice, sweet, kind, hardworking...the list could go on forever.
I enjoyed my time working with you and partying with you at FedEx over the years.
She was always smiling and just so helpful.
My heart goes out to her family in this time of sorrow. Heaven gained the best angel.

Shelley, you were a beautiful soul and one of the kindest, most compassionate people I've ever known. You will be missed by all who knew you and to whom you brought happiness. I will forever miss working with you at FedEx. May you rest in peace now and dwell in the House of the Lord.
Ken, and Family I am so sorry for your loss, you are all in my prayers. May God help you through this.

Auntie Shelley, you were truly an angel on earth. You made everyone feel special and were an amazing listener. You were the most hard-working and selfless person we have ever known. Your infectious laugh and beautiful smile are what we will miss the most...(Ok, your amazing desserts too). We will forever cherish the “guardian angel” charms you gave us this Christmas and take comfort in knowing you’re up in heaven watching over us all! We miss you and love you so much.
“Such An Amazing Sister “ You are truly missed but will always be in our hearts. Amazing, Positive and always helping someone with whatever they needed.
Our Sweet Shelley,
To know you is to love you and that is something that all of us did - love you. You have touched so many lives in your short time here. It's not about the dates that you arrived or when you left us, but how you lived each and every day. Always determined no matter what you were facing and forever with a smile, making all of us feel special. 20+ years together, started as friends and soon became family. The memories are my comfort now. I am so very grateful to have been blessed with your friendship and know that we will meet again. Forever changed by you .....
Shelley, what a blessing it was to have worked with you at SSM. You were an amazing nurse with one of biggest hearts. You were always there to lend a helping hand with a positive attitude and great big smile! Our weekend shift will not be the same without you. You are missed dearly Shelley. Heavan gained a beautiful angel!!
Shelly was such an amazing person, always positive. She did my first two weeks of orientation at MKER, 17 years ago. Shelly was the very first smiling face that welcomed me to Fedex. Such a hardworking person, never had anything bad to say about anyone. I remember one time i got a piece of wood in my hand at work and didn't know what to do. So i ran into the front office to ask Shelly, instead of helping me, she sort of just kept poking at it and was telling me how cool it looked! It was a blessing to be able to know and work with Shelly for 7 years before she went to be a nurse. Heaven truly has gained an angel.
What a Blessing it was to have Shelley in my work family at FedEx. You were incredible!
What a blessing to have known Shelley. Many childhood memories of her make me smile and laugh. She was the sweetest person who loved and cared for so many. Our prayer is that the Lord God would give her family peace, comfort, and strength along with loving memories of her during this very difficult time. Take care my friend, love you always.
Shelley, It was a pleasure and a blessing to have you on our Med/Surg team at SSM. You were nothing short of an amazing nurse. Your compassion, patience, presence and most of all your ability to connect with not only the patients/families you served but your peers as well will never be forgotten. You were such a positive influence on all of your work family and will be deeply missed my friend. Until we meet again!:(
Shelley, your smile and your love for live will live on forever in our hearts. You were an angel on earth and now in the Heavens. You will be missed greatly. Thank you for the memories and friendship over the years. Much love to you my friend. Until we meet again.
My dear sister, please know that a piece of our hearts has gone with you into heaven where the angels are surrounding you with God’s love & protection.
Wishing you peace on your journey you will be missed dear friend.
My prayers go to her family during this difficult time. May God give them some comfort!!
The kindest person I ever knew. Always smiling, always helpful. Really, truely...the kindest person I ever knew.
I will always remember Shelley for the amazing, nonjudgemental, genuine, and caring nurse that she was; she was kind to everyone always. We had many long talks during the night, shared many stories, and had lots of laughs. The world is less of a place without Shelley in it. Shelley will be truly missed.
Shelley, you were an amazing beautiful woman inside and out. You are truly going to be missed. Heaven has another angel. Tim & Lori
Shelly, You are truly a inspiration to All who have worked with you. We are blessed to have had you in our lives. Thank You for your caring ways. RIP Shelly!
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: Shelleys came much to early, the love she gave and yet never asked for in return , a true loving friend
Shelley, I will always miss you, your smile and positive attitude. The most, I will miss your friendship. My heart is broken but the scar remaining will always be there to remind me of you. Until will see each other again, RIP my dear friend, coworker and classmate. We lost an angel on this earth, but the heaven gained one at the same time. Corina
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
