With a heavy heart, we, Roger and Marion Rasmussen, submit to the loss of our beloved daughter, Shelly A (Rasmussen) Telesco and we pray she has been welcomed into heaven. A short battle with a fast acting ailment was fatal and shattered our world.

Shelly was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin on January, 23, 1985. She was a graduate of Bay Port High School, Class of 2003 and earned her bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from St. Norbert College, De Pere, Wisconsin. Shelly was an employee at Woodman's grocery store from 2003 – 2015. In 2015 she moved to Massachusetts and became a Kindergarten Prep teacher at Bright Horizons in Sudbury, MA. Shelly and Timothy P. Telesco were married on September 23, 2016 on a day designed by greater forces.

Our Shelly was a smart, loving, caring and dedicated young woman.

Many of her passions, hobbies and interests stemmed from her love of teaching. Shelly's boisterous laugh was infectious to those around her. As her mom, she gave me the affectionate nickname of "MUDDER". We enjoyed the same sense of humor - I just loved that! Shelly shared her interest of coin collecting with her dad, whom she called "POPS." The loss of our Shelly goes so deep…and the memories of our precious Shelly are imbedded in our hearts forever.

Shelly A (Rasmussen) Telesco, 32, of Northborough, MA, passed away on March 7, 2017 at UMass Medical Center in Worcester, MA surrounded by her devoted family and friends.

Shelly is survived by her loving husband and best friend, Timothy P Telesco; her parents, Roger R. Rasmussen and Marion C. (Kraning) Rasmussen, her sister, Angela D. (Kraning) Delveaux, brother-in-law, David Delveaux, their children, Dalton, Roxanne and Riddick Delveaux, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Thomas and Robin (Roff) Telesco, and a brother-in-law, Josh Telesco, all of Newtown, CT. She will be greatly missed by many aunts, uncles and cousins.  Shelly had many treasured friends and co-workers. She is predeceased by her paternal grandparents, Ervin and Alma (Sladkey) Rasmussen and her maternal grandparents, Hilbert and Helen (Hendricks) Kraning.
