RIP Adrian Shelton

[bellamae]

Just wanted to let everyone know that Adrian Shelton passed away this morning after a long and strong battle with cancer. He was asleep and I was holding his hand as he left us. He lived for bowling and loved hanging at the lanes watching you all and beating you all too (haha). He was a special man with a strong heart, he will be missed forever. Thank you all for welcoming us to the bowling family, Jarryd and I will pop into the lanes occasionally to feel close to Adrian. Please have a XXXX Bitter for him. We did joke to him that we were going to administer it through a drip, he would laugh. He never lost his sense of humour. Thank you all for your love support and wishes, and most importantly for being his friends and bowling buddies. He loved reading his "fan mail" when he was in hospital, it kept him motivated. He loved you all. We will be having a memorial service in Adelaide and he will be laid to rest in Queensland. I will post those details when they are confirmed. Thank you again
Shannette and Jarryd Shelton
