Mark Bonfiglio wrote a sympathy message

“Our prayers are with the Shellenberger family and our hopes for your comfort. "Uncle Jim" was always so kind to our daughters and made them feel special as he crafted items to share with them. I think Hannah still has an airplane he made her! I loved hearing Beverly's stories of when they were kids together and shared a little mischief. I also know how Jim Miller enjoyed their visits, particularly in these recent years. Thank you for remembering Karen in the obituary. Uncle Jim will be missed.”
