I will always have fond memories of Shannon from her sitting next to me in the sixth grade to when other friends as well as myself would camp out with her in her back yard in high school. Her sense of humor and open heart will fondly be remembered. Rest in peace my friend!

So sorry for the loss of your loved one. May you rely on the God of all comfort in your time of sorrow.The Bible gives us a promise at Revelation 21: He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more.
My thoughts and prayers are with Leonard, Cameron, Grayson and Jenny. Shannon was truly a special person; strong, smart and funny. From the day we met we just clicked. The Southern Lady and the northern from New York. We had so many laughs together. She brought so much joy to my life. And introduced Shane to one of his greatest joys. Banana Pudding! Who knew vanilla pudding, bananas and vanilla wafers could mean so much to a guy. Her friendship will always be with me. She was much loved and a best friend. Much love
