In loving memory of Daniel Shelfer, the world’s greatest dad. I know he is looking over all three of you Karli, Brody & Sadie. He is with you every single day in your hearts and always will be. I know he is proud of how brave & resilient you all have been these past few years. He was the most proudest father to you three kids, you were his pride and joy and he loved you all immeasurably. Never received the chance to say goodbye to any of you after your fathers passing, but please know I have always thought about you kids and you will always have a place in my heart, never forget that. Your dad is the best human being I have ever met in my life, and you three are exceptionally bright & kind kids and have so much to offer this world. I hope you all do great things 💗

Dear Shelfer Family:

Sending you all my deepest condolences on the loss and passing of Dan. I just learned of the news today. 
Dan and Josh were two of my favorite kids to have served and worked with at the Club in Bend. I was so happy and proud of the path Dan was on personally and professionally. 
I hope you know how many lives he touched and memories he created in his tragically too short life here. 
All our love and wishes for your healing through his passing. 

Carrie, words cannot express the deep sorrow we feel in losing Dan. He was taken in the prime of his life and without any warning and the loss of this man is catastrophic.  His big smile and kind nature will live in our hearts forever. We hope you find peace and comfort in knowing that he is watching over you, smiling, loving you still and his pain and sickness is gone.  Take care of you now. You have so much healing to do.  So many changes ahead. We are right here beside you every day. Love mom and dad...
