Obituary - Shelly Jean Sells (Harris)

Shelly Jean Sells (Harris) passed away February 23, 2024, at the age of 58, in Fallon, Nevada. Shelly is a lifelong Nevadan, she was raised in Schurz, where she attended grade school and went to Mineral County High School. She completed Beauty School in Reno and became the stylist for the whole family.

 She was a wonderful mother and grandmother who loved spending time with her big rambunctious family. She loved being outdoors, fishing, camping, riding motorcycles, lighthouses, the ocean, seashells, roosters, and family gatherings. Her family will miss her kindness, her quiet strength, her beautiful blue eyes, and her Irish stubbornness. 

She loved all animals and especially her little dog Toby, as her kids would say he was 'the apple of her eye' and never left her side all the way to the end. 

 She was employed at NAS Fallon - with DBSI, as a tool/parts attendant. She enjoyed being part of the mission that supported the United States Military.

 She is survived by her best friend and Father of her children, Lester Milton, Daughter Tawnie Milton Sells, Son Ryan Milton, Grandsons Riley Sells, Gavin and Treyton Milton. Sisters Marta Baldry (Brady), Diana Hanford (T.O.), Heather Pennington (Clay), and Johnnie Rae Stingerie. Nieces and Nephews, Tara Clark, Wade Baldry, Cierra Worring, Logan Meier, Ashley Picotte, Angela Moore, Tesla Diaz, Taylor McQueen, Thea McQueen and Tierra Lombardo, several Great Nieces and Nephews, her Aunt Donna Glazier and Uncle Ronnie Baxter. 

She is proceeded in death by her Mother Marjorie Stingerie, Father Floyd Sells, Grandfather John Baxter, Brother Frank Sells, and Son Tommy Milton. We are comforted knowing they are all together again.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
