It is so sad when the youngest passes away first. She was always so kind to others and we all should be pleased she was a part of our lives.

Shannon & family,

I am so deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your mom/Nana/friend. Words can not express how sorry I am for your loss. Although I haven't been in touch with her the past couple years (which I deeply regret)I know the greatest joy/love she felt was for her family. She was the kindest, most generous person I have ever known. MY thoughts & prayers are with all of you.
