It is with a heavy heart that we bid farewell to VVTA’s beloved Shelly Cable. Shelly has been one of this organization’s pillars since her first role as a coach operator. She loved this company deeply and held VVTA and each one of its employees in a special place in her heart. Even through the challenging medical conditions she faced over the past several months, she remained committed to VVTA’s best interests. Her determination to continue in her role, together with her courageous and fighting spirit, inspired so many of us, especially those who knew about the battle she was facing.
Many of us were fortunate to see and speak with her over the past few days. Even in her moments of pain, she continued to hold VVTA close, discussing work and what still needed to be done. Her dedication never wavered.
As we take a moment to reflect on the remarkable person she was, we recognize how deeply she touched the lives of so many, not only within VVTA’s extended family, but also among other business partners who had the privilege of working with her. Some saw Shelly as a dear colleague, loving and caring friend, sister or even a mother figure.
On behalf of VVTA, we extend our sincere condolences to her family, knowing that her spirit is now at peace and free from pain.
With deepest condolences to all who loved her,
Nancie Goff
Chief Executive Officer
