Condolences & Memories (15 entries)

• Shannon was the left hand to my right. It was an honour to work with and for her. She was the reason I lasted 37 years. Shannon will be in my memory forever - Posted by: MADELEINS MORRISON (FRIEND. CO-WORKER AT AIR CANADA) on: Oct 09, 2021

• So saddened to hear of my dear friend’s passing. Shannon was such a kind true friend. So glad our paths crossed. Many great memories, our many bonspeils, trips to Barbados, Florida, Thunder Bay. Shannon will be missed, but I take comfort she no longer suffers from this devastating disease. Condolences to AT and family. Cherish the beautiful memories. ♥️ - Posted by: Vella Park (Friend ) on: Sep 20, 2021

• Our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the family for a life lost far too soon. Working with Shannon was indeed a true pleasure. Our department had a true family feel to it and Shannon was a huge contributing factor to that feeling. Shannon was without a doubt one of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She was always happiest when telling of her kids exploits and accomplishments and the fabulous and funny dinner parties and get togethers in her and Alan's home. We shared a birthday toast more than once being our birthdays are five days apart, and stood in line more than once at the local LCC waiting for the newest arrival of the Beaujolais Nouveau to arrive. Nothing but good memories with our ShannieAnnie for sure. Let your good memories carry your family thru this terribly sad time and know Shannon will truly be missed by all that were lucky enough to have known her. - Posted by: Wendy and Curtis Collins (Friends and Co-worker at Air Canada with Wendy) on: Sep 19, 2021

• We were so saddened to hear of Shannon’s passing. We both worked at Air Canada with Shannon for many years. Gerry especially was a very close co- worker - he treasured her friendship, her sense of humor and her fun loving ways. She was also extremely knowledgeable and was the Accts Payable SME. It was Shannon who got me into curling at Charleswood and was SO patient with me while I learned the game. I shall always remember those great times and the post game debriefs up in the lounge! Shannon was quite simply a wonderful person and taken far too young. Wishing Alan and family comfort in the days ahead. Cherish your memories! Our thoughts are with you. Deepest Condolences from Kathy and Gerry Gibbings. - Posted by: Kathryn Gibbings (Friend ) on: Sep 12, 2021

• I just found out about Shannon’s passing and am so very sad. Shannon was such a compassionate and kind person. She loved caring for and cuddling the dogs and cats at the shelter as well as her own beloved fur babies. We hit it off right away and had a lot of laughs along the way. My condolences to her family. May she be at peace now. - Posted by: Lisa Bowman (Friend and volunteer from D’Arcy’s ARC) on: Sep 11, 2021

• Alan - I just heard. So sorry for your loss. Howie - Posted by: Howie May (Friend) on: Sep 09, 2021

• Our family is very saddened to hear about Shannon’s passing. Shannon’s caring, support and help through our daughter Lindsay’s school, soccer, ringette, volleyball and hockey years in Charleswood would not have been possible without Shannon’s constant help and encouragement. Our family often referred to Shannon as Lindsay’s “second Mom”! Alan, Caitlin, Jordan, your “Shannon” was a true friend during the many years we gathered together. She will always be remembered by our family and a has very special place in our heart. - Posted by: Barb and Jeff Clendenan (Friend) on: Sep 07, 2021

• I just saw this obituary today and it really made me very sad. Shannon was my lead at Air Canada for a while, she was so kind, caring and patient with all of us workers.....and a great sense of humour. I enjoyed our conversations about travelling and many other topics....she was always so positive. My deepest condolences to all her family, who she talked about often and loved very much. May the many good memories she left behind bring you all comfort during this very difficult time. Many blessings to her soul and to the family....Gone way too young!

• My condolences to Shannon's loved ones. Many years ago I worked in the same finance department with Shannon. I remember her for her awesome personality and kindness to others. When my daughter was born I could not decide on her name. Because of that a helpful nurse suggested I think of someone I know maybe a friend or someone I worked with that was the type of person I would like my daughter to grow up to be. I named my daughter Shannon. - Posted by: Janice Carson (Co workers many years ago) on: Sep 04, 2021

• Our sincere condolences to Alan and family, and to the Bjarnason families. Shannie used to babysit our daughters when they were young, and she was very dependable and our daughters loved her. Shannie was a very caring young lady and was a great athlete in our high school, participating on every team possible. She always played a leading role on every team. Shannie will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her. Everyone close to Shannie will have her in their hearts forever! - Posted by: Lloyd & Jeannette Roche (Friends) on: Sep 04, 2021
