ASK UNCLE BUCK (excerpted from the VJJA Advocate, Winter 2022
Dear Uncle Buck: We had a Christmas gift exchange at our office this year, and I received a legal pad folder with the VJJA logo on the front. I know these were given out free at the November VJJA Institute, and I can't imagine any of my coworkers being so cheap as to pass along a free gift as a Christmas present. While I'm not sure who gave the gift, I do have a pretty good idea. Should I confront the person about this, or just let it go? - Slighted
Dear Slighted: This year for Christmas, Uncle Buck received the same folder with the VJJA logo as a gift from his wife, Mrs. Uncle Buck, who also just happened to attend the last VJJA Institute. She also gave me a Family Preservation Services coffee mug, a Grafton School paperweight, a baseball cap bearing the Challenge Program insignia, a notepad and pen from the Doubletree Hotel and some really stale chocolate chip cookies. Let it go, Slighted. Just let it go.

It is with heavy hearts that VJJA shares the sad news of the passing of Lifetime Member Diane Carlson (Floyd) Shelton.
Diane Carlson Shelton passed away on January 30, 2022 after a short battle with cancer. She was born on August 13, 1952 in Washington D.C. Diane grew up in Arlington, VA and graduated from Wakefield High School in 1970. She attended East Carolina University, receiving her undergraduate degree in psychology and sociology in 1974 and her Master’s in Education in 1976. Diane began her career in 1976 as a Juvenile Probation Officer in Virginia Beach, later became a group coordinator and retired in 2008 as a Probation Supervisor. She developed and implemented the “Street Law” program for the CSU. In 2009, she became the City of Virginia Beach’s Local Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative (JDAI) Coordinator. In 2012, she became Executive Director of the Friends of the Virginia Beach Juvenile Court, a position she held until her death. Diane was a career long member of the Virginia Juvenile Justice Association (VJJA), maintaining her membership for 46 years. She was particularly active as a member of the Local Advisory Board (LAB) for VJJA’s Tidewater District Chapter. For several years, she served as Editor of a regional newsletter the “Court Jester” and as State Conference Chair/Institute Planning Chair. For more than two decades she organized Tidewater “Spring Fling” (a training event that included an annual volleyball tournament).

In 1989, Diane was named the association’s Probation Officer of the Year (now called VJJA’s Meritorious Award in the Area of Court Services). In November 2009, VJJA presented Diane with Lifetime Member status.
Diane was a friend, a mentor, and for many years, the heartbeat of the association. A memorial service will be held on Wednesday, February 9th at 12:00 pm at the Princess Anne Country Club. A celebration of life will follow. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Diane’s memory to the Friends of the Virginia Beach Juvenile & Domestic Relations District Court, c/o Reckling, 316 Winston Salem Avenue, #602, Virginia Beach, VA 23451.
