  • A Sad Announcement - ShelleyNZ

    It is with a heavy heart that I share that ICN Member ShelleyNZ, who was very active on this board last year, has passed away suddenly. Last week, she simply fell asleep and did not wake up. She was in her early 50's. Please say a prayer for her and her family.

    Hugs,

    Jill

                    She was a super-nice lady; we were pen pals for a while a few years back. She would write long, personal, newsy letters that made you feel like you went way back together. It's so sad.
