Shelley M. Krimpelbein Obituary

Shelley Marie Krimpelbein found eternal peace with her Lord on October 20, 2024. She was born in Milwaukee, WI to Nancy (née Tikkuri) and the late John Krimpelbein. Left to cherish her memory are her loving mother; brothers Ken (Kari) and Brian (Jacque); nephews Ben, Ryan, Kevin and Dane; and nieces Lauren and Rachael. Shelley is further survived by other relatives and friends. Shelley was a graduate of East Troy High School and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. In her professional life, she worked as an event planner at the Wyndham Hotel. Crafting brought Shelley great joy, with a particular penchant for jewelry making and crocheting which she would sell and happily gift to family members. Her passion for the ocean was evident as she visited many beaches throughout her life. Shelley was also a devoted cat owner to her beloved pet, Coconut, which she treated like her baby. Caring so deeply for others was perhaps the most endearing of Shelley's many qualities. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Memorial donations may be made in Shelley's name to the Lakeland Animal Shelter in Elkhorn, WI. Private memorial services will be held for the immediate family.

Our memories of the ocean will linger on, long after our footprints in the sand are gone. -anonymous.
