Shelley Dawn Windsor

Posted 2009-07-04 by Pat Wilson
Shelley Dawn Windsor, 31, of Mesa, Arizona, passed away on November 5, 2005 in a tragic rock climbing accident near Flagstaff, Arizona.

Shelley was born in Mesa, Arizona and graduated from Westwood High School. She later graduated from BYU with a Bachelors degree in Secondary Education, followed by a Masters degree at ASU in Technical Education.

She served an LDS mission in St. Petersburg, Russia. Shelley was a high school math teacher at Heritage Academy and a part-time math teacher at MCC-Red Mountain. She loved the students she taught and always reserved a special place in her heart for them.

Shelley also had a passion for the outdoors, specifically rock climbing. In the words of those who knew her best, there was never a challenge too large that she did not attack with a grace and beauty that defies description. For her family and friends, she was a tremendous person, always willing to help and serve, mentor and love, and her sphere of influence effected numerous people who are better for that interaction with Shelley. She was a teacher and a student with an unparalleled zest for life. Although her life was cut short, she continues her work and her adventures in the eternities where we will one day be reunited.

Shelley was preceded in death by her sister Stephanie and is survived by her parents, Bill and Lucille Windsor, her 14 siblings David (Rainey), Bill (Becky), Jim (Charity), John (Jolena), Sandra Beukers (Rob), Sherri Hampton (Tom), Lori Scott (Hunter), Suzanne Allen (Dailand), Becky Phelps (Glen), Kristen Tipton (Gary), Jennifer Williams (Ned), Stacey Clark (Eric), Debbie Palmer (DJ), and Erin Windsor.

Viewing was held on Friday, November 11, 2005 at Bunkers University Chapel located at 3529 E. University Drive, Mesa. Funeral services were held at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day-Saints chapel located at 1718 N. Date, Mesa, on Saturday, November 12, 2005.
