Seth Andrew Shelton, 30, passed away March 15, 2022, at his home in Rockport.
He was born June 11, 1991, in Owensboro, Kentucky, to Stephen and Lisa (Schmitt) Shelton. Seth graduated from South Spencer High School in 2010 and from Western Kentucky University in 2014.
A real estate appraiser with the family firm Shelton Appraisal Service, Seth earned the SRA designation through the Appraisal Institute.
Everyone he met was a friend. Seth lit up a room with his funny, sometimes goofy personality. He had a strong interest in home electronics, configuring camera systems, speaker systems, and creative lighting ideas for his family and friends. Seth’s green thumb came in large part from his 10-year involvement with 4-H.
Preceding Seth in death were his grandparents, Diane Schmitt, M.C. and Joan Shelton.
With his parents, those who remain to honor his life and memory include his wife, Brittany Layne Shelton; his children, Everlie Lain Shelton, Kaylie Renee Buckman ad Aubrey Nicole Buckman; his sister and brother, Sara Novak (Clint) of Charleston and Kyle Shelton (Lauren) of Rockport; his grandfather, John Schmitt of Owensboro; several uncles, aunts, nieces and nephews; and Leon, his canine companion.
Funeral services for Seth Shelton were held at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory in Owensboro. Entombment followed at Owensboro Memorial Gardens.
