Obituary of Shelly Lynn Seymour
Miss Shelly Lynn Seymour was born on November, 13, 1964 in Sussex, NB. She was the daughter of Marina Seymour Lemon and the Late Walter Seymour who passed away in 2001.
At three months old the doctors told the family that "Shelly might walk and talk or she might not. Just take her home and love her and see how it turns out" Well, love her is just what they did. She was adored by her family and was undoubtedly mommy and daddy's girl. Shelly so looked up to her sisters, she was their little shadow and would want to follow them everywhere. Shelly surprised all of her doctors with her love of swimming and how well she learned to ride a bicycle. She had a deep, hearty, laugh and a strong will. She loved to go in the car; especially if McDonalds was involved. Shelly could most definitely carry a tune, often being heard singing "Silent Night", "Goodnight Irene" or "You are My Sunshine" and she loved to dance. Instead of greeting you with a hello or a how are you, Shelly's favorite way to greet those she liked was by saying "you are pretty". This bright, little angel will never be forgotten.
