You have my deepest sympathy on your immeasurable loss. Life is so short and those we love are gone from our lives too quickly. God's promise to empty the grave in the near future is found at Hosea 13:14. May the God of loyal love comfort you during your time of sorrow.

You will be missed by us all. Shannon was the optimism and diplomacy of the Point of Hope ABI Clubhouse. He was quick with a joke, or encouraging words. He was able to help those without a voice to find a voice.

We are sending prayers, and wishing for comforting words for your family and your friends.

You are loved and missed here at the ABI Clubhouse.

Your friends, Liz Pease Nursing Coordinator, and Tiffany Ruppert Teacher.
