Vinita Shinn

Thanks for being my teacher, and a friend. I still have a postcard that you've sent me from washington dc in the summer of 1994. You've inspired many of us. You'll be definitely be missed! Rest in peace mrs. Shinn.

She was best teacher I've ever had. Very professional and trustworthy person. She cared about everyone in the classroom. She also was a fond of postcards as well. She send me a postcard from Washington DC while she was on a trip there. I still have it until this day. She will definitely be missed. God bless her soul

May you rest in peace lovely lady. It was always a pleasure speaking with you when I'd come to Lodi. To the Shinn family, I'm sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful person.

Growing up in Lodi during the 70's, the community was still small, especially the teaching community. Mrs. Shinn was a dear friend of my mom. I have nothing but fond memories of this lovely lady with the beautiful smile who showed nothing but kindness always to our family.

We will always remember Vinita as being very loving and affirming. She frequently expressed gratitude for her family. Her legacy of love is unmeasurable in the lives of the family, friends and students she impacted. May God bring comfort and peace to those who mourn her passing, as the hope of Heaven prevails. Love & Hugs to the Shinn Family.

Dear Shinn Family and Friends, Karen and I are standing with you all as you navigate through this time of loss. Vinita was a true reflection of Christ and unconditional love. She will be dearly missed by so many. May you have comfort knowing that dear Vinita is now in the presence and glory of the One whom she has served so well. Peace and comfort to all of you.
