So sorry for your loss. Shannon was a Palmer High 1961 graduate and friend to many. We had a great childhood in Palmer growing up, bicycling to each others home, going to Rainbow Girls, going to summer camp at King's Lake Camp, going to Girl Scouts, going to school functions, all with memories of Shannon. RIP my friend.
