I regret being away when Shannon passed and would offer belated condolences. I had the privilege of working with her for a short time but was always impressed by her care, compassion and her spirit. There need to be more people like Shannon in this world!

We would like to express our heartfelt condolences on Shannon's passing to all of Shannon's family and friends. Shannon will be missed as she was a great neighbor and friend. Shannon's passion was family. She loved to celebrate not only with her immediate family but with her extended family as well. Her home was the center of many family celebrations. Shannon was kind, gracious, thoughtful, and authentic. She was welcoming, compassionate, caring, and inclusive. She faced her life's challenges with courage. Her patients, as well as her neighbors, and family appreciated her upbeat manner, sense of humor, bubbly disposition, and positive attitude towards life. When our grandkids came to visit, we would inevitably find them laughing and playing in her yard on the trampoline or invited into the house and playing with toys, all having a wonderful time. We celebrate Shannon for a life well lived. Leonard, Donna, Cathy, and Jeff Saunders.

We are so sorry on the passing of Shannon. I remember babysitting Shannon and Robin. Then years later my daughter Amanda was babysitting for Shannon. Our hearts go out to Shannon's family and Buck and Doreen and Robin and her family. Just remember this is not good bye it is until we meet again. Our hearts and prayer go out to all of you.
