\u201cShelby brought such a beautiful energy and positivity \u2013 and innovation \u2013 to her contributions to SAF. She was so generous with her ideas as a member of our committees and councils,\u201d said SAF CEO Kate Penn. \u201cAnything we asked her to do \u2013 whether take part in an article, or develop and lead a program for convention, she said \u2018yes\u2019 to. Her generous spirit was so inspiring. Plus, she was just really fun to be around!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
