Condolence From: Jackson's Funeral Homes Family
Condolence: Dear Shelton Family,
We at Jackson's Funeral Home remember March 28, and the life of Don Shelton. It is our hope that this quote by Thomas Bailey Aldrich brings you comfort as you remember him today. "What is lovely never dies, but passes into another loveliness, stardust or sea-foam, flower or winged air."
You are in our thoughts,
Jackson's Funeral Homes Family

Condolence: I just finished watching Mr. Shelton's funeral virtually. What wonderful tributes from his children and grands! Oh the number of people that man has influenced. I was one of his students in the 60s, and I learned very quickly that he was a man to look up to and a role model to follow. I am so glad that my journey on Earth crossed paths with his journey. He and Mrs. Shelton were definitely two of the best educators and good people that I have ever met. He will be greatly missed, but he will never be forgotten.
