It's been a year today. A year since God took you home. I know He has a plan, but selfishly, I just wish I knew what it was. Instead, I must be strong in my faith and know that God loves you and needed to draw you near to him-for whatever his plan has. We miss you and love you still....
Love,
Your big sis

I am particularly sad this week...for a couple of reasons. But mainly because you didn't have the chance to see and speak to Morgan again. I sent her the gifts you bought for her last year. She knows how much you loved her, Shannon. Eric brought her to the cemetery where she laid flowers for you. She misses you and feels your loss deeply. I hope, in time, that I and the rest of your family will find a way to bring her the peace and comfort and love that you tried so hard to give her, and that she so deserves.
It's Christmastime and I miss you too much.
Love, Mom

Dear Mom,
I really want my old life back...I want my mom back and I want my old friends back. I miss you always. Whenever I see a picture of you I get tears in my eyes and sometimes they might fall but that is okay. I love you always. Whenever anybody mentions you, I feel pain in my heart - maybe not always but I'll always be thinking of you. Whenever I get offered a hug because of my pain from losing you, I still get tears in my eyes. Whenever I see my lovely grandma having tears, I offer her a hug. We all have pain, especially your children. I am not against you so I will not hurt you. I love you with pain in my heart. Your death gives me sad memories but I have lots of good memories when you were alive. You were very pretty, a very great mother, a very good family member. Nobody's perfect but you were the perfect mom.
Love, Ashley

Dear Shannon,
Do you suppose it's alright if I remember all your good qualities, and all the good things you did throughout your life, and to forget anything that wasn't, perhaps, as flattering? Thanks. Me too.
If I put you on a pedestal it's only because your goodness far outweighed anything you ever did that wasn't. I can do that. I'm your mom. I know 30 years of good things about you - from the day you were born, until the day you died. Sure, there were things in your life that you were not proud of - we all have things in our life that we are not proud of. But at the end of the day, at the end of every day, I can honestly say that the good qualities that comprised your spirit far outweighed anything to the contrary. These good qualities are the memories that I, and the rest of your family, will be sharing with your four beautiful children throughout their lives. These same qualities are the ones that Amy and I and the rest of your family will strive encourage to bring out in each of those beautiful children. Do you think it's okay not to tell them things about you that you weren't especially proud of? Thanks. Me too.
I miss you.
Love Always,
Mom
Shannon July 2007 ~ Rest in Peace baby girl...
August 5, 2008
Missing you is just a way of life now. I try not to dwell about what could have been or what should have been. You had so much life ahead of you and so much joy to give. Each time I look at your children I see your face and I am reminded of your beauty. They are all the spitting image of you. I am reminded of your zest for life; your kindness and overwhelming compassion and generosity. I hear your funny laugh and see the twinkle in your eyes.
I remember the time when you were just a little girl and you saw your first homeless person holding a sign bearing the words "will work for food." You were moved to tears and wanted to give him all that you had. And from that day forward you gave to anyone and everyone who needed it.
Life keeps moving forward and we are forced to move with it, but you are always there - with every thought in every day; everywhere we go and everything we do. We don't go anywhere without you. I miss you more than you can possibly know. The pain in my heart is so great. You left us way too soon.
Loving you always and forever,
Mom

Whatever happens, no one will ever take your place - especially with me. You were a great mother and that cannot ever change.

Shannon's Family,
The pain in your hearts is written on these pages. I pray that someday you will able to smile instead of cry when you hear her name and that a memory will bring gladness instead of sadness. I know the loss feels unbearable for you right now and you think you will never smile again but my hope for us all is, that the tradgedy of Shannon's death be a lesson for us in life,
Laugh often, Forgive easy, LOVE like there is no TOMORROW.

In life, there are moments when you miss someone so much that you would only fulfill your dreams by holding that person tight in your arms.
If I could only hold you in my arms just one more time.
I miss you.

Dear Shannon,
The dream was so real that I know you were really there. I've wanted to see you just once more for so long. You looked so beautiful and happy and peaceful -a peacefulness like I've never seen in you before! Thank you for the comforting words at a time when I needed them most. You always did know what to say at the right moment.
Heaven has been good to you and I, too, am glad you are finally free of the chains that bound you here on earth. If only there had been some other way...
I love you and miss you so much that my heart aches. Time is making it more bearable but I will never get over losing you. You were one-of-a-kind, baby girl.
Love,
Mom

There will always be an emptiness inside me that will never fully heal. Today we honored you as a Mother for Mother's Day. We rejoiced in the love you had for your family and children and the beauty that you passed on to them. Your capacity for love and caring was boundless, your smile so genuine and beautiful and your heart was pure. Life has changed so much and nothing is the same. There is always an underlying sadness in every single day. You left us too soon and I miss you too much. Happy Mother's Day in Heaven baby girl.
Love,
Mom

I didn't know Shannon for very long, but I quickly came to consider her my friend and I miss her more than I would have thought possible. I drive by the scene of the accident almost daily and it never fails to bring tears to my eyes.
To Shannon's family, I wish to express my deepest sympathies for your loss. I pray you will find the strength to carry on through the darkest hours ahead and I wish you all well. Shannon will not be forgotten, and neither will you all. Blessed be- Jana

Shannon,
Happy 31st birthday little sister. I wish I could have you here to share it with. What I wouldn't give...I love you endlessly and hope that the pain of losing you will lessen and the joys we shared replace that pain. I love you more than I even realized. I miss you terribly and deeply. I love you always... Your big Sister.

Dear Shannon,
Happy 31st Birthday dear daughter. I miss you so much more than you will ever know. My heart is broken and my mind is filled with missing you. I hope that someday the lifetime of memories will take the place of the sadness of missing you. You have such a beautiful soul and beautiful heart. Stay with those children - they need you near. I love you. Mom

Shannon...though our paths were left uncrossed-directly, your absence does not evade the pain I feel for you, and those who love and care for you, in fact as I write tears flow from my eyes and heart. If we could only empathize the paths we are given, or not given, maybe this pain would seem more bearable; however that’s not how this life is structured, at least here anyway. While I can never replace you Shannon, or even try to, I do consider your dad my dad, for I am without too, so I will do my best to be the best for both of you. I choose not to say good-bye, but see you instead, eventually….

Shannon, Every time I come here to write to you-the words I need escape me. I can't believe you are gone. I just thought you were invincible. You are the only sister I had and losing you was more devastating than I could have ever anticipated. I will miss you dearly and long just to talk to you again. We will take good care of the kids for you, I promise. I love you always..Goodbye little sister, I'll see you again someday-Rest in peace with Jesus now.

You were the nicest person ever. You were always there for me. I will miss your love. Rest in peace for ever mommy. Love, Ashley

It saddens me so much that I'll never spend another day with Shannon. Unlike others, who knew her longer, I only had a short time with Shannon; but I loved her like a daughter and friend. Every time her Dad and I were together, she would always ask us “set a date yet?” Now we will be deprived of her presence, and I’ll never hear her refer to me as her other “Mom” again. I will always remember your sweetness, smile and loving acceptance. Love forever, Mom Lorraine

Dear Shannon, I know you are at peace now but we all miss you so much. You were everything to your babies and they really miss their mommy. I promise you that we will do everything we can to care for them the way you would have wanted, and to keep your memory alive in their hearts and in their prayers for as long as I'm alive. As the days go by, I keep asking myself if the pain of losing you will ever lessen but I don't think it ever will. I love you so much-we all love you so much. Sleep now in heavenly peace, my precious daughter. Love, Mom
