Lindsey Renea Shimp, 30, of Stephens City, VA graduated to her eternal reward on November 6, 2021 at the Winchester Medical Center. The same hospital in which she entered this life.

Lindsey was born July 5, 1991 to Jamie and Debbie Shimp. She is survived by her parents, her sister Tiffany McArtor (Drew) and her niece and nephew Ava and Dylan McArtor of Stephens City, whom she loved very very much. As well as her boyfriend Chris Pendleton of Mount Jackson, VA.

A celebration of her life/memorial service will be held at the Camp of Faith Church 635 Double Church Rd., Stephens City, VA 22655 on Saturday November 20 at 3:00 PM. All are welcome to join.

The family is requesting that those that would like to assist with that service, donate cookies, coffee supplies and bottles water one hour prior to the start of the service.

Lindsey will be remembered for her very generous heart. She was truly a giver.

Lindsey invited Jesus into her heart at a very young age, while watching a Christian children’s television show and asked her Mom to help her do that.

Lindsey’s heart was for the “different” folks in society. From a very young age, she was consistently drawn towards folks with physical and mental challenges. She worked with them at various organizations including Rescare, NW Works and Shenandoah Valley Community Residences, Inc.

She loved her family, friends, animals, sunflowers, the sky/moon/stars, the beach, nature walks and Lake Frederick was a very special place to her to go and find peace. She loved listening to Air1 on 92.5 FM and Steven Furtick on YouTube. God really spoke to her through those ministries, and they really brought healing & hope to her heart & soul.

Lindsey always embraced her uniqueness – what you saw with her was what you got – like it or not. She appreciated “real/genuine” and hated fake.

Though most never saw it firsthand; Lindsey had many challenges in her way too short life on earth, but she always got up, showed up and pressed through. She continually attempted to brighten people’s day and make them laugh.

The family requests that instead of flowers, those wishing to honor her life/memory, do so by donating to one or more of the following that were near and dear to Lindsey’s heart:

Hearing of people’s memories of Lindsey really helps her family, during this most difficult time. Please share those memories, so they may cherish them for years to come.

Lindz was such a beautiful soul. She's in most of my good memories through highschool and GED. She was so silly and we always had a good time laughing at the most goofiest things. Im so blessed to have her in my memories and to have her as a friend. I send my deepest condolences,:(

Debby, Jamie, & Tiffany & all the Gravley Families, All tho we never really knew LIndsey, we have pictures of her when she was in school years ago, from Christmas cards sent to us. Thinking of you & her families during this difficult time. Has to be so hard....such a beautiful woman and so young....RIP our beautiful Great Niece until we meet again!!

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Praying for Gods Peace and Grace. May you find comfort in his loving arms.

We are praying for you guys and holding you close to our hearts?

I am terribly sorry for your loss. Loosing someone you love is very hard to get through. I’ve been there with loosing my husband. I keep telling myself he’s with our Savior. He was ready to go home. I’m sure she’s having a great time sitting at the feet of our awesome God.

Lindsey…when I remember you, I see a strong, passionate, loving, beautiful young lady that touched a lot of lives (including mine). When you wanted us to attend your graduation, I felt so honored. I want you to know that I will never be able to eat macaroni and cheese again without thinking of you and smiling. You hold a special place in my memories and my heart. To Jamie, Debbie and Tiffany, I send my love and prayers. You can truly be proud of how much joy and love Lindsey brought to so many people. She was an absolute blessing and will be missed. We had a saying to each other and I will end with it …..No, youuuuu are beautiful. Love you Lindz

To The Shimp Family: So sorry for your loss. May God continue to give you strength, comfort you and grant you peace. To be absent from the body is to present with the Lord. Know that Lindsey is resting in his arms.

I did not know your daughter but I feel your pain. I have a 30 year old daughter. If she were to die I would have no children. I would be soooo lost. Peace to your family.

Lindsey had a beautiful smile, the kind that was contagious and made you smile back no matter what you were feeling at the time. Lindsey was a strong advocate for our individuals at NW Works and she will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and Chris as you begin this journey of healing after such a great loss.

My thoughts and prayers continue to be sent to Lindsey's family and Chris. When I met Lindsey 2 years ago at NW Works, she was the first person who stepped up to welcome me and show me the ropes. We quickly became close friends and shared a lot which included many smiles, laughs and support when we were both going through personal struggles. Lindsey was such a good friend and would make sure that I was doing ok, even when she was going through her own struggles. I have seen Lindsey touch so many people's lives and bring smiles to so many faces. She will be missed dearly, but I will carry her smile and so many memories in my heart forever.

We are so sorry you are suffering from the pain and loss of losing your beloved Lindsey. May God carry you through these difficult times and may He continue to shine His light through you!
