Obituary for Carolyn Ford Shelton (Ford)
Carolyn Jean “Nana” Ford Shelton, 77, of Reedville passed away after a brief illness on Friday, November 15, 2019. She was surrounded by her loving family.
She is survived by her loving husband Jack Shelton; her devoted son John Shelton; her adoring daughter Nicole Shelton Harding and her husband Rich Harding; her niece Ashley Ford Payne; and last but certainly not least, the light of her life, Reagan “Frog” Harding. Reagan made her “Nana”. They were two peas in a pod, they did everything together. You would often find them in the same chair eating oyster crackers. When anyone spoke to Nana, Reagan was always her favorite topic of discussion. They loved planning the menu for holiday dinners, and always ate all the hard crabs and wouldn’t share.
Funeral services will be private. The family will host a catered open house from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, November 24, 2019. At 153 Edwards Ln., Reedville, Virginia. The family would like to extend a special thanks to Riverside Tappahannock Hospice. Your love, care and compassion made our loss more bearable. In lieu of flowers please send donations to Riverside Tappahannock Hospice, 289 Hospital Road, Tappahannock, VA 22560.
