Shelby Renee Hershberger, 19, died on November 9, 2021. Born December 6, 2001, in Millersburg, Ohio, she grew up mostly in Knox County, Ohio, was homeschooled for several years, and attended East Knox Elementary and Mount Vernon Middle School. Shelby graduated from Hayes High School with honors a year early and had worked at McDonald’s for more than three years while in high school.

As an adult she moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, to be near three older sisters and two baby nieces. She worked as a Heavy Project Merchandiser, building retail stores every other week, and was remembered by colleagues and family for her positivity, strong work ethic, and love of her cats Posie and Gladis.

Does anyone with knowledge of Shelby, her time in Wilmington, or circumstances around November 2021 have information to share?
