Her family is heartbroken.
She was 28 years old and from Swindon. She died when her Kawasaki ZR motorcycle crashed into a car near Long Newnton.
The terrible accident happened on the B4014 last Wednesday, just after 5:30 p.m.
On the B4014 between Tetbury and Malmesbury, there was a crash. Emergency services rushed to the scene, but Shelby could not be saved.
Her family was very sad and paid a moving tribute to Shelby, whom they called “vibrant.”
They said it from the bottom of their hearts: “Shelby was full to the brim of dreams.”
People in her family said that she had a contagious laugh that could make any night better.
It said, “Shelby was tragically taken from us at the age of 28.”
“She was a friend, a daughter, a sister, a granddaughter, and a fiancée.” She was alive and full of love, laughter, and life.
The family also said, “Shelby was very protective of the people she loved and had big plans to keep traveling and having adventures.”
“Her smile could light up even the darkest of nights and her laughter was so incredibly infectious that you couldn’t help but laugh with her.”
Shelby was brave and independent in everything she did, and her family and friends promise to keep her spirit of adventure alive.
They went on to say, “She was taken from us way too soon. We will miss her terribly, think of her every day, and love her forever.”
Thank you to everyone who has sent flowers and offered support to Shelby’s family during this difficult time.
They have also asked for privacy while they deal with their “immeasurable grief.”
No one who knew Shelby will ever forget how sad her death was.
The touching tribute from her family shows what an amazing effect she had on everyone who knew her. She was “brighter than the sun” and was taken from us far too soon.
Family and friends have been putting flowers at the crash site to make it a touching memorial for a young woman who was full of life and had a bright future ahead of her.
After the terrible accident, police are still looking into what happened.
Anyone who knows something should come forward.
Shelby Smith was a bright light who left us too soon, but her memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved her.
Riders of motorcycles should do everything they can to stay safe while they’re on the road.
Last year, 306 motorcyclists were killed in accidents in the UK.
One tragic victim was only in his 20s when he died in a terrible accident in Dorset.
The motorcyclist from Weymouth was pronounced dead at the scene by Dorset Police, and his family was told soon after.
