In Loving Memory of Shelly McKee: A Tribute Through Our General Funds Campaign
We recently received a deeply moving donation in honor of Michelle (Shelly) McKee, a beloved foster parent who opened her heart and home to One Chance, one of our rescue dogs. Shelly passed away on September 19, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of compassion, dedication, and unconditional love for animals in need.
A generous supporter shared these heartfelt words alongside their contribution:
"This is in honor of Michelle (Shelly) McKee who was our foster for One Chance. She passed away on Sept. 19. We are grateful for the care she showed for our fur baby."
Who Was Shelly McKee?
Shelly was the kind of foster parent every rescue dog dreams of — patient, nurturing, and full of love. When One Chance came into our program, Shelly stepped up without hesitation, providing a safe and warm environment where our fur baby could heal, grow, and thrive. She is a true hero of our rescue community.
Fosters like Shelly are the backbone of what we do at Three Little Pitties Rescue. Without dedicated individuals who open their homes and their hearts, we simply could not save as many lives. Shelly's memory will live on through every animal we rescue and every life we transform.
