Above all else, Shannon cherished her role as a mother. Her three children—Bailey, Mallorie, and Caden—were the lights of her life. She poured her heart into raising them, guiding them with patience and grace, and showing them what it means to love unconditionally. Whether cheering them on from the sidelines, helping with school projects late into the night, or simply sharing a quiet moment at home, Shannon’s devotion to her children was evident in everything she did. Her legacy of love and strength lives on in them, and in the countless memories they created together.

Shannon also leaves behind a host of family and friends who will deeply miss her gentle presence. She was a beloved daughter, a loyal sister, a trusted friend, and a caring confidante. Her laughter, her stories, and her unwavering support were treasured by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Whether at family gatherings, community events, or quiet afternoons spent with close friends, Shannon’s spirit was one of joy, resilience, and love.

A memorial service to celebrate Shannon’s life and honor her legacy will be held on April 28, 2025. This gathering will serve not only as a time to grieve but also as a moment to reflect on the profound impact she made in her 41 years. Friends, family, and members of the community are encouraged to come together, share their memories, and offer support to one another during this difficult time.

As we mourn her passing, let us also remember to celebrate Shannon’s life—her kindness, her courage, her laughter, and most of all, her love. Though she is no longer with us in the physical sense, her spirit continues to live on through the lives she shaped and the love she gave so freely.
