How do you make specific contacts go right to voicemail?

How do you make only specific contacts go straight to voicemail? I don't want the phone on silence and I don't want to block a caller - just be able to choose specific callers to go directly to voicemail.

iPhone 5c, iOS 8.4

The definition of putting a block on a caller is that it sends them directly to voicemail. If that's what you want, I'm not sure why you say you don't want to block the caller.

If you block them, you don't get notified that they called and the voicemail gets put in the deleted folder. If the OP still wants to be noticed of the call, blocking may not be the option they want.
