With many mixed emotions and understandable broken hearts, the Horton’s  Funeral Home and Cremations Family joins with the family of Mr. Shelton Lamont White as they prepare to say “Rest In Peace”. Mr. White transitioned from this life on Tuesday, August 15,2023.

Immediately following the services in the sanctuary, Shelton’s earthen vessel along with his adored family will be escorted to Fellowship and Worship Center for Interment Rites. 

Although Mr. White stepped out of this life’s backdoor, those whom he loved and loved him can find solace knowing he has walked into the Garden of rest, where there are green pastures of peace and brooks flowing with living water.
