She was united in marriage to Jeremy Wood June 23, 2000. Together they had a family of 3 children, Emily, 20, Alexis, 15 and Ian, 10. There was never a better mother or more loyal wife and friend. She was a cook, secretary, babysitter, homemaker, Shannon was able to be whatever anyone needed at any given moment. She was very considerate and loved her family so much that she endured 7 years of harsh treatment for ovarian cancer when the doctors thought she migh have 2 years.
Shannon had a strength and will that is seldom seen and instilled only by God. She will be missed by many and never forgotten. Her journey was a testament to her faith and love for God and life.
