Ann Christine Shelt’s vibrant soul left this earth on August 7, 2016 at age 81. Ann often bragged about the 6x6 buck mounted on the wall and told the tale of how she caught him to anyone who would listen. Spending her life as a house wife, mother, and grandmother gave her much joy in life.  Though her hunting adventures ended much sooner than her wish, she still took much pleasure in her kid ‘critters’, crocheting, knitting, Church and of course her family. Ann travelled extensively during her husband’s 30 years of military service learning German as a second language.  
Ann is preceded in death by her husband, Paul C. Shelt; and parents Garfield ‘Al’ & Irma C Ruppel of Toledo, OH.
She is survived by two sons: Nick Shelt (wife Brenda Lee) of Kalispell and Bruce Shelt (wife Elena) of Anchorage, AK. She is also survived by two granddaughters: Stacie Erickson (husband Rocky Erickson) of Columbia Falls, Trina Shelt of St Albans, VT and two great-granddaughters: Bailey Erickson and Oakley Erickson.
She will be missed by her numerous family and friends in Toledo, OH, as well as family scattered throughout the US.  
In lieu of flowers and cards the family requests that donations be sent to Frontier Hospice of Kalispell in her loving memory or other hospice in their local area.
