Shannon spent her senior year studying abroad in Australia. After graduation she attended Southwest Technical School in Fennimore, Wisconsin in the legal secretary program. Shannon began working at FirstStar Bank in Madison, Wisconsin and worked in their trust department for many years. She married Steve Adams in 1991. The couple enjoyed raising their two boys, Kyle and Kris. They later divorced. Growing up Kyle and Kris played t-ball and little league baseball, as well as flag football. The boys remember the family spent many wonderful summers camping at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Campground in Warrens, Wisconsin. Shannon and the boys also took a memorable vacation to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. She moved to Ten Sleep, Wyoming with her boys in 2004 and to Gillette, Wyoming in 2005. Here she worked with some wonderful people at the Pat Avery Real Estate and the Tender Care Businesses. Being raised active in 4-H cooking, sewing, beef and swine projects herself, Shannon helped the boys compete at 4-H fairs during the summer. When she was not at work, she spent the remaining hours enjoying the boys' sports events, especially Camel Football games. Shannon enjoyed sewing, quilting, knitting, crocheting, reading, and listening to music. Two of her favorite companions were her Pug dogs, Gracie and Tuffy. She will be greatly missed by her family. Shannon was a dedicated sports mom, but still had so much of her heart to share with others. She was a member of Faith Community Church who showered her with love and support and considered it a blessing, honor, and privilege to have shared some of the journey with her. The last two years of her life she fought a courageous battle with cancer, touching the lives of many with her warm smile, sweet spirit, strength, and determination.
