Dear Sharon, Tim, and Hans,

I am writing this in disbelief and such sadness. I have been looking for Shauna's contact information for several months as I have found myself thinking of her so often. I am so sorry for your loss(es) - it is impossible to imagine the devastation of losing both of your girls/sisters. Shauna will always have a special place in my heart, and I will never forget the bond we shared and the fun we had in Arizona and Iowa. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
