Shawna's Eulogy
Shawna was always relentless when it came to getting what she wanted. A simple thing like being held on your lap was something she craved a lot of as a baby.
If Shawna wanted anything you would know it because she was either extremely loud or had a very persistent whine. You couldn’t help but love her and give in. Especially when it came time to eat, she loved macaroni and cheese and Lasagna. Her favorite color was purple, and of course her first two bikes had to be purple as well as most of her clothes.
When she was little she loved her French braids and her tomboyish clothes. She was the kind of kid that loved to climb a tree, but always wanted to do it in a dress. Skinned knees were the normal for her. She would put on her hiking boots and flannel shirts to sit with her tea set. She was always a hit with the boys because she had a fierce right hook and could throw a ball with the best of them. That would be one of the reasons that her Mom wouldn’t let her hit on her brothers. It certainly didn’t seem to scare the boys away as she got older though.
Shawna always wanted to have a little sister, She used to tell her Mom that she would say her prayers every night to have that little sister. Mom always said, “Shawna honey that is not possible” Mommy can’t have any more babies. Guess what? As usual. Shawna once more got what she wanted,, a little sister.
She always had a love for all kinds of animals. She aspired to be a “vegetarian”, or veterinarian as we all know it, There was never a fear of any kind of animal and she was always wanting to bring home a stray no matter what it was. That was why “Mom” ended up getting a kennel license, to house all Shawna’s pets
As she got older she began to grow into a beautiful young woman. Her mom was always worried about letting her go anywhere. Shawna was always very trusting of everyone she met, even a bit naïve most of the time. It seemed to be what drew people to her most of her life.
Shawna came to a point when she had a beautiful daughter of her own and that was her passion for the last 17 months. Shyanne was her light and her heart and at times what kept her going on those “bad days” as she always called them. It seemed as though in her most difficult moments as long as Shyanne laughed or smiled at her she could get through each and every moment. She was a free spirit and loved life. There was never a dull moment with Shawna around.
If you knew Shawna at all you knew that she was very well known for the girl that always wore a smile. No matter what life handed her that smile was always there!
Shawna honey,,I know you can hear us,,so
“PEACE OUT BABY”

To my most beautiful daughter
We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.
