Dear Friends & Family,

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share that Shannon Colleen O'Boyle died peacefully on October 16th. She was surrounded by her parents and brothers. In her 23 years she taught us a lifetime of lessons. We have countless people in our lives we never would have met if not for her. She touched, taught, and challenged more people than we will ever know. She accomplished so much in her short lifetime. Although we were not ready to let go of her, we knew it was her time.

Throughout her life, and especially the last 6 months, we have felt so much love and support from our friends, families, and even people we have never met but who Shannon touched. We are fortunate to have had Shannon and she will live on in so many ways for so many people. 

There will be a memorial mass and luncheon on Saturday, December 9th, all are welcome to remember and celebrate Shannon.

We appreciate any donations made in Shannon's memory.

Thank you,

Megan, Michael, Kevin, Sean, and Shannon (and Petunia)
