Shannon Nicole Adkins

Ernie and Doug,

I Talked to Shannon 5 days before she was killed. This is a horrible time for all of us but the neighborhood has to stick together Duane and I Will always be here for you if you ever need anything

We love you both very much

may god be with u n keep u strong this is a sad day but rember she would want u to go on with ur lives she is with you n looking over you she is ur angel may god bless

Dougie and Ernie,
We are so sorry for everything. There isn't one thing anyone can say or do to make this right or even to bring Shannon back. The service was very nice. Shannon couldn't have been prouder. You both are most deff. the strongest people we know, if there is anything you two ever need, we are just a phone call away. We look forward to visiting with you more offen. She was the world to all of us. We love you and you will forever be in our prayers. But as for Shannon, she may...

Shannon was the greatest person i know. I really miss her a lot. i dont know what i would have done in school if it wasnt for her. I really do love you Mrs Ernie and Mr Doug. I make a promise that i will visit you guys. I just wanted to tell you that i Love You So very much. I will see you guys later

To Ernie, Jake, and the rest of the family, I know that it cannot bring Shannon back, but we have been praying for you. I'm Jake's sister-in-law, and didn't know Shannon. I know that Deborah has told us lots about her and the rest of the family, and she just loves you all.

Ernie,
I am So sorry for your great loss. I just found out. My prayers are with you all. She was so beautiful. I cant imagine your pain, my brother was killed by a drunk driver at age 11 , if there is anything I can do please let me know.

My heart breaks for you all...Shannons death will not be in vain...her death is a great example of why we should have mandatory alcohol detection devices on all vehicles.

Ernie, I love you so much and it hurts me to see you in so much pain. As I told you on Tuesday, you have so many friends and family that love you and are going to be here for you anytime that you and Dougie need them. You, Dougie and Shannon both have touched my heart in so many ways and even though we live so many miles apart now, you are still and will always be a part of my family.

My parents sends their love.

You all are the most wonderful people that I think i'll ever...

Ernie, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We often shared stories of our daughters and each time your eyes would shine with joy when speaking of Shannon. Your love for her was evident but God loved her more and called her home. Trust in God and he will strenghten you....."there is no sorrow on earth that Heaven can't heal". May his peace be upon you.
