Shannon Post Obituary
Shannon spent 22 years with Bartell Drug Store Corporation in Seattle, Washington, and continued her career in retail management up until her passing. Known for her love of decorating and arts and crafts, she brought beauty and joy into the lives of those around her. Shannon was always ready to help others, a testament to her kind-hearted nature.
She leaves behind her mother, Sharon Hofstra Haugen of Bullhead City, AZ; her father Darrell J. Haugen of Lk Chelan, WA, who suffers from dementia, her estranged husband, Gerrold Post of Covington, WA; her brother, Barry Haugen, along with two nieces and nephew of Washougal, WA; and her son, Jeremy James Luther, and grandchildren Nolan and Chloe of Arlington, WA. Shannon was preceded in death by her baby sister, Heidi Lynne Haugen, 3/26/01 age 30 from anorexia and her maternal grandparents, Don and Alberta Hofstra, with whom she shared a special bond and paternal grandparents Mrytle and James Haugen
Shannon cherished her Dachshund, Kloe, a faithful companion since puppyhood. Those wishing to honor Shannon's memory can make contributions through a Go Fund Me page under the name of her mother, Sharon Haugen.
Arrangements are being handled by Arizona Affordable Funeral Home. Shannon's warmth and creativity will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Hello Shannon, I am writing a message with angel wings to Heaven. We met through our shared love and care for animals. I was so fortunate to know you and work together with you to preserve and protect the final resting place of our beloved animals interred at the historic human and pet cemetery in South King County, Washington State. I'll always remember your joy and zest for life and living. Thank you for sharing part of your life's journey with me. I look forward to seeing you again and meeting all of your animals who you loved and that I heard so much about. God bless you, Shannon!

I´m really sorry I can´t be there as you celebrate Shannon´s life this morning. She has been on my mind; her spirit will always be with me. She truly had a beauty that shone from the inside out. She was vibrant and full of life, embracing everything with a fun and fearless attitude. I miss all that about her and more.
I hope it brings you some comfort, Sharon, knowing Shannon is resting beside Heidi. My thoughts are with you as you honor her memory today. Sending you much, much love.

Oh Sharon! My memories were from so long ago in Mirrormont, Issaquah, WA and have been kept alive through your Facebook posts. This is unbelievably sad and heartbreaking. My heart goes out to you and to your family. There are no words to adequately express comfort for you. Just know there are those thinking and praying for you.
