The family wrote, "Momma Dukes" was and still is a beautiful woman. Her kids and family were her everything. She taught us what not to do, but loved us even when we messed up. She was always there when we needed to talk. We think the things she loved most were pictures, candles, flowers, and knick-knacks. Our mom tried to be happy and make everyone else happy. Momma Dukes was the most stubborn women we ever knew. What she wanted more than anything was grandbabies and to be a great mom, which she was. - Damien Williams: You were my ray of light in the dead of night. - Kody Williams: The grass is always greener on the other side. - Tanner Comoza: "Momma tried." love ya momma!

She was preceded in death by her mother, Michele Burns; brother in-law, Ray Clapp; brother, Chuck Worster.

She is survived by her sons, Tanner Comoza, Damien Williams, and Kody Williams; mom, Marie Conn; father, Charles E. Conn; sister, Kelly, Blossom, Abbie, Tina, Donna, Julie and Johnna; brother, Scotty.

I share your family's grief. God Bless Shannon. She and I were new friends. We played pool together. We talked about our sons. She talked about all of you, her three sons. She smiled then was serious. She was easy to be around. She will never be forgotten.
