They later divorced on September 26, 1993. She then married Russell Smith on August 5, 1994 in Salina. They later divorced. Shelley was a social butterfly. She greeted everyone with the kind of smile that makes everything feel better. Her greatest passion was her family. She loved spending time with them, especially during the holidays! She loved her grandkids incredibly, and her dog Luna, or Baby as she was often called. Shelley liked playing cards with the family. She was a voracious reader. She loved spending time in the mountains. She liked to shoot. She enjoyed fishing as long as someone else baited her hook, cast her line, and unhooked her fish, so in other words she loved reeling in fish! She is survived by her daughters: Celise Ballow of Salina; Kaley O'Neil of Port Angeles, Washington; her grandsons Derek Ballow, and Tristan Ballow both of Salina; her beloved friend Bruce Smith of Salina; her brother Kevin and Michelle Roberts of Frankfort, Kansas; her niece Tia Schofield of Frankfort, Kansas; her Nephews: Terron Roberts, Brody Roberts, and Ethan Roberts all of Frankfort, Kansas. A private family gathering, and celebration of her life will be held on July 4, 2017.
