Margaret Nelle
Shelby Garland
November 27, 2022
Margaret Nelle Shelby Garland, of Lancaster, PA passed away November 27, 2022. She was born to the late Ernest and Barbara Shelby in Houston Texas. Margaret was a loving mother, grandmother and wife who spent her life raising and caring for her family.
Margaret, also known as Nana to all, loved to sew, quilt and crochet; she quilted and crocheted blankets and crocheted animals, or critters as she called them, for her grandchildren. She also spent many years as a member of a quilting group. She enjoyed spending her leisure time doing color by numbers on her tablet or watching the masked singer on TV. She also loved watching her favorite football team, the Dallas Cowboys. Never missed a game. She also had a passion for cooking with her favorite accessories like an air fryer, instant pot, and crockpot. Margaret had a great sense of humor, and she was the sweetest soul with never a cross word. She was loved immensely and will be greatly missed by many.
