I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter, Shannon. I had met her while we were taking a fitness class together..She was also a phenomenal Baker...her treats were absolutely delicious!! I pray for Gods Strength and comfort for you, as her parents, her daughters, and entire family during this very sad and difficult time.
