It is with deep sadness that the family of Shannon Bennett announce her sudden passing at the age of 32.
She is survived by her parents Len and Cheryl; and her brothers Blake (Ali) and John. As well as numerous relatives as she was part of a large loving and caring family.
Shannon attended John Dolan School and when a position was available she entered a day program at Cosmopolitan Industries.
Shannon was rarely quiet--her voice carried! She was happiest with the simple things in life-- a toy to play with (especially if it made music or animal noises), a group of friends to be part of, somewhere to go (she loved her car and bus rides). Her giggles came from deep within and took a while to finish and cheered those around her. She smiled wide, smiled often, smiled just because. She hugged hard, didn't hold grudges, accepted everyone and lived in each moment.
She will be missed.
Shannon's family would like to thank her aunts and uncles for their support. We are truly blessed to have them.
We would like to thank the emergency room staff at St Paul's Hospital for their professionalism and compassion.
We would also like to thank the first responders who quickly, calmly, with dignity and respect tended to Shannon and her family.
In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to either John Dolan School or Cosmopolitan Industries.
